The pieces you receive may differ slightly from the photo shown, as the minerals are natural and no pieces are identical. The size is approximate.The minerals are glued with hot silicone. If desired, the silicone can be easily removed without damaging the piece with ethyl alcohol and thus separate them from the base where they are glued.
