Lustrous rosettes of Hematite grow from a sea of sparkling Feldspar crystals on a Gneiss matrix. The Hematite rosettes are quite perfect - symmetrical shape with bright metallic lustre, and formed from platelets of hexagonal Hematite crystals. Switzerland is famous for its Hematite rosettes, and this is an superb piece.
