Item Description
Mineral specimens from this obscure Ahmadnagar District are rare and are seldom on the market. This sculptural and very aesthetic combination is highlighted by the beautiful 2.8 cm spray of gem, bi-colored fluorapophyllite crystals. The 3-dimensional, two-sided matrix mounded matrix of spiky balls of snow-white okenite and pearlescent, colorless stilbite blades makes for a very pleasing and uncommon combination from this locale. Ex Dave Bristol Collection (with label). Valued at $900-1000.
