AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

From the collection of rare and important minerals: sugar-green fluorite step-cut crystals on a milky quartz mantle. Complex crystallization composed of many small fluorite cubes. Fantastic color contrast between green and the white quartz. Rare and high aesthetic value.

Fluorite is known for its fluorescence when exposed to UV rays, from which its name derives. Additionally, crystals of high-purity fluorite are used in precision optical systems for their low chromatic dispersion and high transmission in the ultraviolet and infrared regions.

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

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

Shipping is carried out via reliable express couriers with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 working days in Europe), tracked 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.

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