Description from the seller

Beautiful cubic Pyrite specimen from Java Island, Indonesia, featuring well-defined natural crystals with sharp edges and a brilliant metallic luster, elegantly displayed on a black metal stand (included).
This piece displays the classic cubic habit that makes pyrite so highly sought after by collectors. The crystals show clean geometric faces with excellent definition and a striking brassy-gold color. The reflective surfaces create a captivating play of light, enhancing the three-dimensional structure of the specimen.
Often referred to as “Fool’s Gold” due to its resemblance to gold, pyrite is an iron sulfide (FeS₂) known for its strong metallic shine and distinctive crystal formations. Specimens from Java Island are particularly appreciated for their sharp cubic development and aesthetic quality.
