Description from the seller

Unique piece
Hematite 'Rose of iron'
Height: 70 mm
Width: 130 mm
Depth: 90 mm
Weight: 721 g
A one-of-a-kind specimen, found at Monte Cervandone, Verbano Cusio Ossola.
This mineral classification indeed derives from its unique crystallization pattern, which visibly appears in the form of small rosettes.
Hematite has an additional characteristic that makes it unique in its kind.
In fact, its chromaticity, shiny and 'clean,' resembles a mirror.
The beautiful effect of this grouping of roses is enhanced by the fact that the largest crystal is 1 cm in size.
