AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Large emerald sphere, carved from the natural matrix of the precious emerald from Brazil, a natural beauty. Its intense green, enriched by streaks of biotite mica and quartz, creates a fascinating contrast. Its perfect shape and smooth, shiny surface capture the light in a breathtaking play of reflections. Brazilian emeralds can vary in shade of green depending on the amount of chromium and vanadium present in the beryl. Natural inclusions, such as fractures and other impurities, are considered unique characteristics. This emerald sphere can be used in crystal therapy to promote energetic balance, emotional healing, and spiritual growth.
Emeralds belong to the beryl family, a group of minerals that also includes other varieties such as aquamarine. They are primarily composed of beryllium, aluminum, silicon, and oxygen.
