AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
***WARNING – due to the current situation regarding tariffs, sales to the U.S. are TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED***
This uncommon Vanadinite has a beautiful orange color that stands out chromatically against the white Calcite matrix. The feature that makes it special, besides its rather uncommon orange color, is the fact that the crystals are trumpet-shaped, a characteristic rarely visible in this species.
Colorful and aesthetic gemstone, photographed under intense light.

Seller's Story
We have been collectors since 1972, present as exhibitors at the main mineral exhibitions in Italy and some European ones (Sainte-Marie-Aux-Mines, Monaco, etc.), where you can find us to get to know us in person, exchange opinions, talk about our beloved minerals and, should the auctions end close to an exhibition, deliver your samples directly.
All proposed minerals, unless otherwise specified, are photographed using a strong light source, to better show the colors and details of the sample.
If you buy multiple minerals in the same auction, we will ship them together and you will only pay the higher shipping costs.
