Yellow calcite spheres on dark basalt, crystals on matrix, from Montalto di Castro, Viterbo, Lazio, Italy.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Aesthetic crystallization of yellow spherical calcite on a dark basalt matrix. This specimen features a fantastic color contrast between the yellow calcite and the black/dark gray basalt. Furthermore, its shape is particularly aesthetic: a sort of hemispherical geode.
All of this confers on the champion in question refinement, elegance, and a high aesthetic value.

A unique piece of nature, ideal for enriching high-level mineral collections and perfect for decorating exclusive environments thanks to its high aesthetic value. Many people find healing properties in minerals; the uses for crystallotherapy and lithotherapy should not be underestimated.

Photos are taken in a dedicated set with intense lights to avoid altering the colors, but it is recommended to display the minerals in well-lit environments to fully appreciate their tones.

Shipping usually occurs the next day, with tracking and careful packaging. Multiple orders from the same customer will be grouped together and any excess shipping costs will be refunded.
