Peruvian Pyrite Heart 8 inch

This impressive pyrite heart was mined from Peru. A lovely statement piece for any room, this heart weighs in at almost 7kg and stands roughly 8 inches tall.

The mineral pyrite, also known as “fool's gold”, is an iron sulfide. Pyrite's metallic luster and pale brass-yellow hue gives it a resemblance to gold, hence the well-known nickname “fool's gold”.  Pyrite is thought to encourage self-recognition, as well as reveal secrets and memories.
