Collectable minerals

A large amethyst geode can become the main accent of a room, while malachite or pyrite can take its place in a study or a collection. At RELICTUM you can choose a mineral by size, form and character so that it looks right in your particular space.

Questions and answers

FAQ

Which minerals are in the collection?

Exhibits in this section: 12 — amethyst, rock crystal, malachite, pyrite, fluorite, stibnite, sphalerite, uvarovite, as well as septarian concretions, druses and geodes for interiors.

How much do interior minerals cost?

Prices from 500 000 ₽ to 2 500 000 ₽. The price depends on size, purity of colour, crystal form and whether the druse is intact.

How should minerals be cared for?

Keep them out of direct sunlight — amethyst and fluorite fade over time — and remove dust with a soft brush. Pyrite does not like moisture.

About this selection

How to choose

Collectable minerals are chosen by eye but checked for how easily they can be placed. The specimen should stand securely or come with a reliable stand — this applies especially to tall druses and geodes. Look at the depth of colour and the integrity of the crystals: chips on the tips catch the eye at once. Malachite and pyrite open up softly in diffused light; amethyst benefits from a more directed beam so that the violet does not get lost. For a desk, a medium-sized mineral you want to turn in your hands is best; large geodes work for the whole room and need a place of their own.
