About the Item

Large Pyrite Sphere, 6.5", Cut and Polished – Peru This striking 6.5-inch pyrite sphere, sourced from the mineral-rich highlands of Peru, is a dazzling fusion of natural beauty and expert craftsmanship. Carefully cut and polished to a high metallic luster, the sphere retains raw, naturally formed crystal pockets that offer an eye-catching contrast to its smooth, reflective surfaces. Known as “Fool’s Gold,” pyrite is prized for its bold golden sheen and metaphysical associations with abundance, protection, and vitality. The combination of polished gleam and rugged crystalline texture makes this piece a standout decorative accent, collector’s specimen, or energetic centerpiece.
