AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Excellent specimen of Hessonite, a Garnet variety, in association with Clinocloro, from Passo del Faiallo, Urbe (SV), Liguria. The matrix hosts numerous Hessonite crystals with the characteristic intense red-orange color, well-developed and with bright, lustrous surfaces, in splendid contrast with the green tufted aggregates of Clinocloro covering a large part of the host rock. These features make the piece particularly interesting aesthetically and mineralogically.

This is an ideal specimen for mineral collections, display, and for those who appreciate the natural beauty of minerals, also in the context of crystal therapy and lithotherapy, according to the properties traditionally associated with the mineral species.

All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, with rare exceptions always noted in the description. The 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 carried out via reliable, selected express couriers, with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 working days in Europe), tracked and insured shipping and professional, safe packing, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries may also occur the day after payment depending on the destination.

It is possible to accumulate multiple purchases and receive them in a single shipment, even from auctions with different expirations, simply contact us to organize the consolidation. For important pieces, direct home delivery by appointment or at major European fairs is also available.
