Osmium is a perennial best seller for Luciteria. This metal has an irresistible pull on collectors for combining the desirable qualities of record-breaking density, rarity and beauty. First we can note this bit about it being beautiful. A blue metal is not something you see every day. Its light blue color is immediately apparent when placed besides, say, a coin or some other piece of ordinary metal. Then, as for rarity, it has few peers; easily outclassing gold and platinum on this count. Being extremely rare typically means extremely expensive but, happily (for now at least), gram for gram it is consistently cheaper than gold. It is, however, extremely rare in the sense that there are not many outlets where you can shop for it.

The growing awareness of this commodity has fueled a bit of FOMO (fear of missing out) as there is a palpable sense that there is something very wrong in the supply-demand equation that currently favors the buyer. Why not join the club and get in on the action? This ampule holds a gram of sparkly, shredded crystals that are as beautiful to look at asthought-provokig: osmium is one of the world’s rarest substances.
