AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Excellent specimen of grossular garnet (garnet variety) with clinochlore, from Frasse Alp, Laietto (TO), Piedmont, Italy. The piece shows a nice growth of small grossular crystals in an intense orange-brown color, coated and partly adjacent to characteristic radiating green clinochlore aggregates, with a fan-shaped habit clearly visible in macro details. It is an Alpine-type specimen, a formation considered of particular mineralogical value. 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 context of crystal therapy and lithotherapy, according to the properties traditionally associated with the mineral species.
All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, with extremely rare exceptions always indicated in the description. The photographs are taken with professional lighting to best enhance colors and details; however, slight tonal variations may occur depending on the device or ambient light.
Shipping is carried out via reliable and selected express couriers, with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 business days in Europe), trackable and insured shipment 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, also from auctions with different deadlines, simply contacting us to organize the consolidation. For important pieces, direct home delivery by appointment or at major European fairs is also available.
