AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A box made entirely of selected malachite, with those concentric and ramified patterns that make this stone immediately recognizable. Each surface tells the crystal path of the mineral: bands, vortices, fibrous fans and botroidal structures intertwining in an irreplicable natural design. Handcrafted with precise cutting and polishing, preserving the continuity of the veining on all sides. The effect is that of a single block of malachite transformed into a desk organizer, a jewelry box, or a small collectible box, with a solid and refined character.
Seller's Story
The Mineral Art Gallery offers minerals, fossils, shells and natural elements.
Born in Italy in 2017, today she collaborates with international galleries and collectors, she is a direct importer of large minerals and naturalistic collectible elements; deals with the processing to insert them inside the living space. A section of the gallery was dedicated to the Wunderkammer, "chamber of wonders or cabinet of curiosities" in which Mirabilia elements are presented: naturalia and italiania, a union between "the present is the past".
All lots are shipped via DHL Express and Fercam couriers, with insured parcel and tracking.
