AI-assisted summary

   

Description from the seller

A large Facolite crystal (a variety of Cabasite), 17 mm in size, collected in the 1990s during the construction works of the Osilo-Nulvi road. The crystal has a cream color and a greasy luster, and dimensions that are good for the species. A Sardinian classic, photographed under intense light.

The sample is photographed under intense professional lighting to best highlight details and color. Any slight variations in color tones depend on the device settings used and/or exposure to ambient or artificial light of different color temperatures.

Seller's Story

We have been collectors since 1972, present as exhibitors at the main mineral exhibitions in Italy and some European ones (Sainte-Marie-Aux-Mines, Monaco, etc.), where you can find us to get to know us in person, exchange opinions, talk about our beloved minerals and, should the auctions end close to an exhibition, deliver your samples directly. All proposed minerals, unless otherwise specified, are photographed using a strong light source, to better show the colors and details of the sample. If you buy multiple minerals in the same auction, we will ship them together and you will only pay the higher shipping costs.
