Description from the seller

Fantastic cluster rich in translucent Calcite crystals with orange limonite. Excellent scalenohedral white/transparent crystals with a yellowish limonite patina and intense orange. High aesthetic appeal but also excellent mineralogical value due to the size and quality of the crystals. This specimen is characterized by the excellent formation of the crystals, allowing the shapes of the crystalline faces to be appreciated. The naturally grown crystals, in an excellent manner, possess intense colors.

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.

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.
