AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Sample: Pyrite and Calcite from Trepča.

• Sample description: Splendid and aesthetic crystal grouping characterized by an extensive and dense central aggregation of pyrite crystals, with a brilliant golden brass-yellow color. The crystals show heavily striated faces, sharp edges and an extraordinary mirror-like metallic luster, magnificently surrounded and interpenetrated by large and clear rhombohedral calcite crystals of white and translucent hue, which create a perfect frame and an exceptional visual contrast.

• Short locality description: Trepča mining complex, located near Mitrovica in Kosovo, famous worldwide among museums and collectors for its gigantic and iconic geodes rich in sulfides associated with carbonates of extraordinary aesthetic quality.

• Crystal therapy: This magnificent combination unites the shielding virtues of pyrite with the purifying properties of calcite; it is ideal for infusing a strong charge of vitality, increasing prosperity, stimulating willpower in the solar plexus chakra, and promoting the energetic cleansing of the surrounding environment.

• Bases not included in the sale.

• No extra-EU shipping.
