Specimens of Pyrite originating from the Chispa Mine in Huanzala, Peru. This Peruvian Pyrite is of a higher grade than our other material, thereby making it more desirable to collectors. These specimens are ideal for displaying pyrite’s signature cubic crystal habit. Iron pyrite is famous for being called “fool’s gold”. This is because its shiny, brassy yellow colour often tricked inexperienced miners into believing they had found a large vein of gold where in reality it was simply pyrite instead. This was most common during the USA gold rush of the 1840’s.  Pyrite is a sulphide mineral, which is a group of inorganic compounds consisting of sulphur and at least one more element. Pyrite is an iron disulphide, with a chemical composition of FeS2. 

These Peruvian pyrite specimens are an ideal addition to any collection, as well as being excellent teaching samples too. They are available in a range of sizes and come displayed in a white card tray with an information label.

Selenite Pencils
Selenite Pencils £9.99 ex VAT

elenite pencils are exquisite and captivating mineral formations that showcase the natural beauty of selenite, a form of gypsum. They exhibit a pristine translucence that allows light to pass through, creating a mesmerising glow when held to the light. Each selenite pencil measures approximately 14cm in height and 4cm in width whilst being smooth and well weighted. This makes them easy to hold whilst remaining promenant enough to stand out as a decorative piece. They all feature a flat, hexagonal base, making them easy to stand on a range of surfaces. Since these items are made from 100% natural selenite, it is common to expect some slight variance between each specimen, whether that be in shape, size or the occasional scratch. Despite this, these selenite pencils would make a great addition to any room, adding some flair and elegance.
