Item Description

An outstanding example of the species. This remote Siberian zeolite locality has produced some of the finest and largest examples of the species, such as this one. However, few are seen on the Western markets.The piece dates to the late 1980s or early 1990s. The crystal is complete-all-around, pristine, has textbook form and beautiful porcelaneous luster. The smaller crystal is a nifty accent. Priced at $695 by the former dealer and worth it. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
