AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Sample: Essonite Garnet with Monte Civrari Clinochlore

• Sample description: An extraordinary and exceptional collectible piece that showcases a very rich and extensive druse of essonite garnet crystals, with the typical deep hyacinth red-orange color and exceptional gem-like transparency. The individual crystals, polyhedral and rich in brilliantly faceted faces, rise in a unique color contrast above a matrix entirely covered by a velvety carpet of small lamellar crystals of dark green clinochlore.

• Brief locality description: Monte Civrari Massif, located between the Val di Susa and the Val di Viù in the Metropolitan City of Turin (Piedmont), a famous Alpine site internationally renowned for its rare and historic finds of roddingites rich in aesthetically impeccable garnets.

• Crystal healing: This splendid combination merges the protective and vitalizing properties of essonite with the regenerative properties of clinochlore; it strongly stimulates the root and heart chakras, infusing physical vigor, supporting self-esteem in overcoming old emotional blocks, and fostering a deep connection with Earth’s stability.

• Bases not included in the sale.

• NO EXTRA-EU SHIPPING
