Item Description

An aesthetic, very sculptural combination specimen from the less well-known Rahuri area of India. The triangular matrix of lustrous, tan, stilbite blades hosts striking snow-white, elongated, wheatsheaf-like, scolecite crystal clusters and a very nifty cityscape-like cluster of glassy, blocky, prismatic, light mint-green apophyllite crystals. This is certainly one of the more stunning and beautiful Indian combination pieces we have offered in this size. The quality is very fine. Essentially pristine. Ex Schlichter Collection. an unusual combo piece!
