AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Numerous emerald crystals, the largest measuring 25 mm, with a beautiful, intense green color and well-defined faces. Although these crystals are not as gemmy as good-quality Colombian emeralds, this is still an interesting and representative specimen. This is an old Brazilian specimen, decidedly rarer. Photographed under bright light.
The specimen was photographed under intense professional lighting to best highlight its details and color. Any slight differences in color tones depend on the settings of the device used and/or exposure to ambient or artificial light of varying color temperatures.

Seller's Story
We have been collectors since 1972, present as exhibitors at the main mineral exhibitions in Italy and some European ones (Sainte-Marie-Aux-Mines, Monaco, etc.), where you can find us to get to know us in person, exchange opinions, talk about our beloved minerals and, should the auctions end close to an exhibition, deliver your samples directly.
All proposed minerals, unless otherwise specified, are photographed using a strong light source, to better show the colors and details of the sample.
If you buy multiple minerals in the same auction, we will ship them together and you will only pay the higher shipping costs.
