AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

From our selection of collectible minerals we propose a rare specimen of Kolwezite on Cobaltocalcite from the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Additionally, it is characterized by the presence of green Kolwezite, a very rare mineral that takes its name from the mining city of Kolwezi, accompanied by fuchsia Cobaltocalcite that enhances its aesthetic value; the scarcity of these minerals and the historical provenance emphasize its mineralogical importance.
The specimen stands out for crystallization quality and overall aesthetic balance, with features that enhance its natural structure and visual impact.

It is an ideal piece 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, save for very rare exceptions always indicated in the description. Photographs are taken with professional lighting to best highlight colors and details; however, slight variations in hue may occur depending on device or ambient light.

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

It is possible to accumulate 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.
