Description

Outstanding hematite var. iron rose featuring two major roses perfectly perched on top of a single white adularia crystal. Hematite is pratically mint, with exceptional metallic mirror lustre, to the point it gets pretty hard to photograph due to the reflections.
The specimen has been hot glued (not by me) on an acrylic plinth for optimal display. 

A true jewel from the Swiss Alps.
