Description from the seller

From our selection of collectible minerals, we offer an excellent specimen of Goethite from the historic Su Zurfuru mine, Fluminimaggiore, Sardinia, completely natural, of great mineralogical value. It features a typical botryoidal globular structure, with surface tones ranging from golden-brown to metallic black, and areas with iridescent green and yellow reflections that enhance its aesthetic charm.

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

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

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

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

Follow us also on live auctions every Monday and Friday at 20:55!
