Description

Iron Rose from Salzburg is much more rare than from Tyrol - so this is a locality-pice, but for the locality it is really exceptional. The rose is free-standing and complete (second photo shows the back-side), faces show excellent luster and again - a specimen from Salzburg county is an exceptional rarity!
