Description from the seller
Large firework grenade with a spherical shape.
A garnet combination with spherical astrofyliet is a unique and visually appealing gemstone that combines the characteristics of both minerals. Garnet is a group of silicate minerals that often appear in various colors, including red, green, yellow, and brown. It is known for its high hardness and luster, making it a popular choice for jewelry and decorative objects.
Astrofyliet, also known as 'firework granate,' is a rare mineral distinguished by its golden to brownish color and star-shaped crystal structures. These unique features give astrofyliet a particularly visual effect reminiscent of an explosion of fireworks.
When garnet and astrofyliet come together in the form of a sphere, they create a fascinating object that combines the luster and hardness of garnet with the unique patterns and colors of astrofyliet. The spherical shape emphasizes the natural beauty of both minerals, making it an attractive decorative piece for mineral collectors and enthusiasts of unique gemstones.
The origin of both garnet and astrofyliet can vary, with garnet often found in different parts of the world such as India, Brazil, and the United States, while astrofyliet is mainly found in areas like Norway and Colorado. The combination of these two minerals in spherical form makes it a rare and valuable object that attracts the attention of collectors and enthusiasts of natural beauty.
It will be insured up to the maximum limit.
