The Collection is the heart of this site, the section where you can look at most of the specimens I've collected in approximately 30 years. You can browse the collection by size and locality. In general I prefer miniatures and small cabinets, because of both practical reasons and the best compromise among space, beauty and price. Anyway, the collection also includes many cabinets and thumbnails. A special section is devoted to Italian minerals, since the collection itself was born in Italy, with a predominance of local items. Essentialy, it's intended to be an aesthetic collection, so you will see a lot of representative items of the same mineral (especially my favourites; beryls, garnets, sphenes, calcites, tourmalines and others). By clicking on each picture you can enter the correspondig full-page with a comprehensive description of the item and additional photos. Try and enjoy!
