Description from the seller

Excellent specimen of Sphalerite from Peru, completely natural, of excellent mineralogical value.
This specimen features a single large Sphalerite crystal, with well-defined, glossy surfaces that highlight the mineral's natural luster and structure. Natural growth has produced regular, harmonious shapes, enhancing the species' characteristic features.
The size and quality of the crystal make the piece particularly dramatic and captivating, ideal for both collectors and displays with a strong visual impact.
A unique piece of nature, ideal for enriching high-level mineral collections and perfect for decorating exclusive environments thanks to its high aesthetic value. Many people believe minerals have healing properties; their uses in crystal therapy and lithotherapy should not be underestimated.
The photos were taken in a dedicated setup with intense lighting to avoid altering the colors, but it is recommended to display minerals in well-lit environments to fully appreciate their tones.
Shipping usually takes place the next day, with tracking and careful packaging. Multiple orders from the same customer will be grouped and any excess shipping charges will be refunded. :)
