Item Description

Apophyllite and stilbite combination specimens are highly desirable from the famous Deccan Traps of Jalgaon. This outstanding and aesthetic CABINET specimen is highlighted by the impressive very well-placed 5.2 x 4.8 cm ball of juicy, waxy luster, mint-green apophyllite cubes. The surrounding field of pearlescent, flesh-colored, stilbite blades is a super compliment. Expertly prepared, this very fine combination is esentially pristine, with only trivial periphery wear. The apophyllites are of uncommon style and this is one of the finest large apophyllite and stilbites combinations we have offered at auction. Valued at $1000-1250.
