Gallery Grade Lemurian Crystal Cluster with Gray Dreamcoat Lithium Phantom
Located in Ametista Do Sul, BR
Straight from the famous Araçuaí-Itinga mines, this rare specimen is an all-natural Lemurian with a Lithium Crystal Cluster, bringing beautiful aesthetics as well as the energy of two exceptional crystal varieties in one remarkable piece. It is undoubtedly a specimen to add to your crystal collection or to become a powerful tool in your healing arsenal.
The first thing that captures our attention is the aesthetic formation of the cluster, featuring the main crystal point surrounded by smaller, perfect points that add depth and complexity. This arrangement creates a sense of balance and symmetry, drawing the eye to the central, gorgeous point.
Another standout feature of this specimen is the main point, enveloped by Lemurian lines that reveal intricate natural drawings. It showcases two distinguished sides: one with a naturally polished finish and the other with a natural matte texture.
We've chosen to maintain the specimen 100% natural, exactly as it was found in the mine, that way you can see the perfection of the main point as well as the intact characteristics of the coadjutant points.
Importantly, this Lemurian Cluster is not only a natural wonder but also ethically sourced. Ethical practices ensure that the crystal has been obtained in a responsible manner, considering the well-being of both the environment and the workers involved.
Lithium inclusions within quartz crystals typically occur during the crystal formation process when lithium-rich fluids are present in the geological environment. In the case of phantoms like these, the lithium ghost-like outline was present in only one stage of the crystal growth, making this specimen even rarer.
Overall, this Lemurian with Lithium Crystal Cluster represents an exceptional combination of size, aesthetics, and ethical sourcing. Please take a look at the pictures and video, and don't hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or specific requests. 🤍

Abstract Scholar Rock Viewing Stone on Wood Stand
Located in Atlanta, GA
On offer is a highly abstract scholar rock on a fitted wood stand collected by an American collector in Palm Desert, CA. The dense rock in dark grey is likely granite and takes a natural sculptural form of a bird, which explains the note on the back from the previous collector "A Constantin Brancusi Bird". The rock is presented in the tradition of a Chinese scholar rock on a fitted carved wood stand, very sculptural and visually interesting from different angles. While Chinese scholar stones are appreciated all over the world, many collectors also look into their local stone sources that reflect the same spirit and philosophy of using the viewing stone...

PAIR OF ANTIQUE ITALIAN ANTONIO CANOVA CORCORAN GALLERY OF ART WASHINGTON LIONs
Located in West Sussex, Pulborough
Royal House Antiques
Royal House Antiques is delighted to offer for sale this extremely collectable pair of original Antique Circa 1880 Italian Grand Tour Alabaster Recumbent Lions after the original huge statues by Antonio Canova and as displayed in the Corcoran gallery of Art in Washington
These are original examples not later copies, they have a stunning antique patina and look expensive and important in any setting
Grand tour pieces were purchased by young men and women in high society when they finished their studies, they would go on a "Grand Tour" around Europe visiting the sites and collecting trinkets, these trinkets could be very small such as ingots, or if you were fabulously wealthy they would be much larger and heavier like these lions
About Tomb of Pope Clement XIII
The artwork, titled “Tomb of Pope Clement XIII,” is a sculpture created by Antonio Canova in 1792. Belonging to the Neoclassicism art movement, this masterpiece exemplifies the genre of sculpture.
In the artwork, Canova masterfully arranges various sculptural elements to create a poignant and regal composition. The tomb consists of a carved effigy of Pope Clement XIII, situated in a reverent pose atop an elaborately adorned sarcophagus. The Pope’s figure is cloaked in flowing garments, kneeling in prayer, signifying his piety. Below, two imposing lions flank the monument, symbolizing strength and vigilance. An angelic figure, wings partially spread, gazes downwards with a sorrowful expression, embodying the eternal mourning for the departed. Adjacent to the angel, a robed woman stands, her somber posture accentuating the tomb’s solemn atmosphere. The architectural framework, with its towering columns and vaulted arch, adds to the grandeur and reverence of the entire composition, upholding the Neoclassical ideals of symmetry, order, and monumental form.
Later in life the Canova Lions were replicated, they are located in front of the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C, these were cast in bronze from molds of the originals. The pieces were installed in 1860
This pair as mentioned are sublime, they really set the scene for a room, I've had a pair on the top of my piano for years with a large Tiffany lamp...

"Caress of Water" Memory Jug by Michael Thompson
Located in Chicago, IL
Based in Chicago, IL, contemporary artist Michael Thompson creates unique kites, collages and mixed media works assembled from material fragments of past and present collected in his travels. In his ongoing series of memory jugs, Thompson adorns stoneware vessels with a kaleidoscope of ceramic shards, found objects, and pocket-sized trinkets he collected over the course of his life.
Also known as forget-me-not jugs or spirit jars, memory jugs are African American folk art objects that honor a loved one who has recently passed. Small tokens and mementos of the deceased are gathered and affixed to the exterior of a jug or vase, an abundance of memories that celebrates a life lived to the fullest.
Michael Thompson applies this tradition to his own practice, creating tactile assemblages of this and that. Formed in the manner of collage, each jug honors the lost memories of generations past and his own memories of personally discovering each item. With varied sources for materials including Kyoto, Turkey, and Mexico, a great number of the found shards are 18th and 19th century ceramics...
