Description from the seller

From the collection of museum and rare minerals: fantastic quartz covered by blue apatites. This specimen features large quartz crystals coated with hundreds of blue apatite crystals of excellent formation and intense color.

Collectors know how these types of minerals are increasingly sought after, expensive, and hard to find!
The uniqueness of this specimen lies in its rarity, provenance, size, and the quality of the crystals.
These perfectly formed ones, which can be appreciated for their crystalline faces and crystallizations. Furthermore, their color is unique and in intense shades that give the sample elegance and refinement.

A unique natural specimen, ideal for enriching high-level mineral collections and perfect for decorating exclusive environments thanks to its high aesthetic value.

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.
