Well for close-ups you have to come to Vienna, the most beautiful display
hall for meteorites on Earth - with a lot of iron falls.

Best is, you're planning your visit to Ensiheim with a stop-over in Vienna
before.

Hi Martin, Thank you for sharing...

Those photos are a little too distant to see any detail... I can see it
has a satin like, or velvety like surface, but a closeup of the surface
detail is what I was looking for.

Anyone?

Those are gorgeous irons by the way!

Regards,
Eric
