AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Fantastic Almandino crystal (Almandino variety of red Garnet) with Tourmaline (Schorlite variety of black Tourmaline) on a white matrix, from the very famous origin of Val Codera in Lombardy. This specimen is characterized by excellent crystal formation, allowing appreciation of the crystal face shapes.
A unique piece of nature, ideal for enriching high-level mineral collections. Many people find healing properties in minerals; their 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.
The shipment usually occurs the next day, with tracking and careful packaging. Multiple orders from the same customer will be grouped, and any excess shipping costs will be refunded.
