AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Natural Hand Carved Stone — An impressive sculptural specimen in the shape of a Shiva Lingam, entirely handmade from a solid block of Kambaba Jasper sourced from Madagascar. Weighing nearly 4.6 kg and measuring 28 cm in length, this piece stands out not only for its significant size but, above all, for the hypnotic pattern on its surface, which tells an ancient geological story. The polished, mirror-like finish highlights every chromatic and structural detail, turning the object into a catalyst for visual and tactile attention. The object possesses the classic ovoid shape of the Shiva Lingam, symmetrical and without edges, imparting a sense of harmony and balance. The smoothed surface reflects light with great brilliance, accentuating the mineral’s intricate texture. The background color is a deep forest green, variegated, upon which countless orb-like aggregates of black-greenish color float. These

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.
