Grossularia rossa with green clinochlore on matrix from Frasse Alp, Laietto (TO), Piedmont, Italy.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Excellent specimen of Grossular, a variety of Garnet, in association with Clinoclore (Crystals on Matrix), from Frasse Alp, Laietto (Turin), Piedmont, Italy. The Grossular crystals show a warm red-orange color with good luster, arranged on a green Clinoclore matrix with a lamellar structure, typical of formation in an Alpine fissure. These characteristics add aesthetic and mineralogical value to the piece.

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, in line with the properties traditionally associated with the mineral species.

All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, with rare exceptions always indicated in the description. Photographs are taken with professional lighting to best bring out colors and details; however, slight variations in shade may occur depending on the device or ambient light.

Shipping is carried out via reliable and carefully selected express couriers, with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 business days in Europe), tracked and insured shipping and professional, safe packaging, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries can 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 deadlines, simply by contacting us to arrange consolidation. For important pieces, direct delivery by appointment to your home or at major European fairs is also available.
