希少な鉱物標本 – 白カルサイトに埋め込まれたラピスラズリの結晶 - Height: 178 mm - Width: 100 mm- 2548 g - (1)

This rare and unique Lapis Lazuli specimen is a true collector’s treasure. What makes it extraordinary is the combination of a polished top showcasing the deep royal blue Lapislazuli while the majority of the piece remains in its natural raw Calcite matrix. Unlike most Lapis Lazuli pieces where Calcite appears in banded patterns, this specimen features large areas of white Calcite with embedded dark blue Lazurite crystals. The contrast between the raw and polished surfaces highlights the stone’s natural beauty and geological uniqueness. Pieces like this are extremely hard to find, making it a perfect choice for serious collectors who seek one-of-a-kind mineral specimens with both aesthetic appeal and rarity. Highlights: -Rare combination of polished and raw surfaces -White Calcite matrix with embedded Lazurite crystals -Strong contrast between deep blue and white -Unique formation – very uncommon in the Lapis world -Perfect for display, collection, or as a conversation piece
