Item Description
Indian Zeolite specimens may be plentiful for now, but you must appreciate them for what they are. They are simply some of the finest crystallized examples of many of these species extant. This piece features a few sharp, lustrous, translucent, blocky green color crystals of Apophyllite up to 2.5 cm with a few tranlucent, colorless Stilbite blades and dozens of pearly, white Heulandite crystal groups on matrix. It's an aesthetic small cabinet size piece, and will probably end up being a great bargain for somebody. One day (eventually) India will not produce any more of these Zeolites, and they will more than likely receive great recognition for being the amazing display specimens that they are.
