AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Excellent specimen of Calcite from San Giovanni, Bindua, Iglesias, in Sardinia, completely natural and of excellent mineralogical value.

The piece presents itself as a dense cluster of crystals with a characteristic scalenohedral habit well developed, enriched by inclusions and limonite patinas that give the crystals particularly suggestive golden and amber tones.

These features 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 field 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 indicated in the description. The photographs are taken with professional lighting to best enhance colors and details; however, slight variations in tone may occur depending on the device or ambient light.

Shipping is carried out through reliable and selected express couriers, with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 business days in Europe), trackable and insured shipping and professional and safe packaging, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries can also take place the day after payment depending on the destination.
