Description from the seller
From our selection of collectible minerals, we present a rare violet Corundum crystal (ruby) from Madagascar. In addition, it features a ruby crystal of notable size (1.8 cm), set in a dark matrix that enhances its aesthetic value; the perfectly formed crystal allows observing the shapes of the crystal faces. The specimen shows strong sensitivity to ultraviolet light (UV Sensitive) as shown in the photo, all of which heightens its mineralogical importance. The sample stands out for the quality of crystallization and for its overall aesthetic balance, with characteristics that enhance its natural structure and visual impact.
This is an ideal specimen for mineral collections, display, and for those who appreciate the natural beauty of minerals, including in the realm of crystal therapy and lithotherapy, in line with the properties traditionally associated with the mineral species.
All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, except for rare exceptions always indicated in the description. Photographs are taken with professional lighting to best highlight colors and details; however, slight tonal variations may occur depending on the device or ambient light.
Shipping is undertaken via reliable express couriers carefully selected, with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 working days in Europe), tracked and insured shipping and professional and safe packaging, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries can also take place the day after payment depending on the destination.
It is possible to combine multiple purchases and receive them in a single shipment, even from auctions with different deadlines, simply contacting us to arrange the consolidation. For important pieces, direct home delivery by appointment or at major European fairs is also available.
