Item Description
Covering a basaltic matrix are rosettes and individual crystals of pearlescent, white stilbite, to 1 cm in length, which in turn host spherical clusters of lustrous, rich, teal blue, cavansite, to 1.3 cm across. Minor contact is present on a few rosettes, but this is still a very showy specimen. Ex Joe Budd Collection
