Large Rare Feather Pyrite Designer Cut Cabochon; Feder Pyrit Cab

I cut this large cabochon of very rare Feather Pyrite ("Feder Pyrit") from material coming from the rugged East Harz Mountains in Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony) Germany. Sparkling feathery vein patterns of pyrite meander down the stone like brilliant golden strands of moss hanging down from a large tree limb blowing in the wind against a background of creamy white quartz in this uniquely stunning cabochon. I've cut this cabochon with a medium high dome, girdled sides and a flat beveled back. This material is truly an astonishing rarity that will definitely draw attention! If you’re looking for something unusual, jaw dropping, beautiful, one-of-a-kind and special, this would definitely fit the bill and make an incredible piece of jewelry or top shelf addition to a collection.

Feather Pyrite comes from the rugged East Harz Mountains in Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony) Germany, which is the only place in the world where Feather Pyrite is found. Feather Pyrite is Pyrite pseudomorphous after Pyrrhotite (var. Feder Pyrit), which displays as yellow-metallic pyrite pseudomorphous after veins of pyrrhotite in quartz.
