Product Information
Italian Paesina Pietra approximately 10x7 centimeters free form slice,
size and scene will vary. Gemstone mined in Italy.
As our buying team travels the globe in search of the most unique stones and minerals, an intriguing rock was uncovered at the 2015 Tucson gem show. (Pun intended!) Now making its JTV debut, this stone hails from the Apennine Mountains near Florence, Italy. Literally translating to the 'landscape stone', paesina pietra is an ancient marvel of nature. Created some 40-50 million years ago, picturesque scenes that often mimic those seen in everyday life were formed within limestone rock. Seen in a variety of colors and infinite number of designs, these sedimentary stones were created as the earth shifted, forming fractures in the limestone. Composed primarily of compressed limestone and clay that formed in sea beds, it was the infiltration of iron and manganese hydroxide that created their infinite variety of scenic patterns and array of colors. Paesina pietra has been collected as an object d 'art since the 17th century throughout Europe. Highly regarded as a decorative accent, the stones were displayed prominently in European royal courts, including those of France, Germany and England. Extremely limited in availability, this is your opportunity to own a piece of stone art created compliments of Mother Nature!
