Description from the seller
Sphere in Labradorite – Carved from Natural Block
A sphere carved from a block of labradorite, crafted to highlight the mineral's characteristic internal luminosity: the electric blue that suddenly appears, like a slit of light between the dark layers of the rock. The polished surface bears traces of natural formation: lines, fractures, inclusions, and golden veins that intertwine with the optical play of labradorescence, creating a mineral landscape in constant motion. It is a piece that changes depending on the angle of light and the observer's eye. Some areas display an intense, almost mirror-like brightness, while others remain more subtle, with delicate reflections that emerge slowly. The result is a solid, elegant, and lively sphere, capable of bringing a tactile and magnetic presence into a room. Perfect for meditative environments or simply for those who desire a natural object that never looks the same twice.
Seller's Story
The Mineral Art Gallery offers minerals, fossils, shells and natural elements.
Born in Italy in 2017, today she collaborates with international galleries and collectors, she is a direct importer of large minerals and naturalistic collectible elements; deals with the processing to insert them inside the living space. A section of the gallery was dedicated to the Wunderkammer, "chamber of wonders or cabinet of curiosities" in which Mirabilia elements are presented: naturalia and italiania, a union between "the present is the past".
