Item Description

An outstanding, beautifully prepared large combination zeolite specimen from Jalgaon. A stunning, gem, 2.5 cm, exquisitely sharply terminated, mint-green apophyllite dominates the curved vug lined with pearlescent flesh-colored stilbite crystals. Jalgaon has produced an amazing number of fine zeolite specimens, but this fabulous aesthetic and sculptural large piece certainly stands above most. Valued at $1250-1500 for perfection and the mint color an dhigh luster of that central apophyllite. it is WAY above the usual quality from here and thus much more rarified than the usual "classic India combo" as these are!
