Item Description
An excellent cluster of numerous thin, bladed Hydroxyapophyllite from Wessels, on matrix. The Hydroxyapophyllites have superb luster, are gemmy, and are colorless. Note this is not the more common Fluor-variety of Apophyllite. This is much rarer, and these crystals are first-class. The largest blade is about 2 cm across. An excellent, aesthetic Hydroxyapophyllite, with fine properties and unusual habit.
