Pyrite Sphere 1.5-2"- Peru

Pyrite Sphere 1.5-2"- Peru is a sphere of pyrite. Pyrite is an iron sulfide mineral, nicknamed fool's gold, known for its brassy shine and natural cubic crystals. Spheres are polished from a single piece of stone so its pattern shows from every side; many people use one as a focal point for meditation or display it on a stand or dish.
