Description

Siglo Veinte Mine, Llallagua, Rafael Bustillo, Potosí, Bolivia 12.7 x 5.3 x 6.0 cm To find a truly world-class Vivianite specimen is a rare occurrence; many specimens tend to be small, damaged, and appear to blend together. This specimen is truly exceptional, both in terms of size and quality. This cabinet-sized masterpiece exhibits beautiful etching on the front-right face, and robust, translucent, colorful crystals that make a bold statement. The pleochroism displayed by this piece is remarkable. When backlit, vibrant "kryptonite green" colors glow. Shift the piece just a bit, and royal blue and inky purple colors appear. This specimen comes with a custom acrylic base, and was formerly in the collection of Stephen Pochek. Photographs by Jordan Root

Vivianite Sales Data
How this data is collected: Our system continuously monitors mineral listings from authorized dealer partners across the internet. We have explicit permission from all dealers whose listings we track - any dealers who have not provided specific and explicit authorization are NOT listed and NOT tracked by our system. When a previously available listing is marked as sold or removed from sale, we record this as a completed transaction. While we cannot guarantee the exact final sale price (as negotiations may occur), this data represents publicly listed prices for specimens that have transitioned from "for sale" to "sold" status. This provides valuable market insights based on observable listing behavior patterns.
