Description from the seller

Beautiful decorative collection combining three natural mineral specimens and two fossil specimens, elegantly arranged on a black metal display stand.
The mineral selection consists of:
Vanadinite – displaying striking reddish-orange crystals with well-defined geometric forms.
Prehnite – an attractive pale green specimen with a delicate crystalline surface and translucent appearance.
Red Quartz – a distinctive specimen characterized by intense reddish coloration caused by iron-rich mineral inclusions or coatings.
The combined weight of the three mineral specimens is approximately 530 g.
The composition is completed by a polished slab containing several Orthoceras fossils, with their characteristic elongated chambered shells clearly visible, and a polished stromatolite slice, displaying beautiful concentric growth structures associated with ancient microbial activity.
All five specimens are presented together on the black metal display stand shown in the photographs, creating an attractive combination of mineralogy, paleontology and natural decoration.
