Item Description

Ivory-colored gyrolite balls to 3.3 cm; lustrous, translucent, bi-colored gray and colorless, calcite rhombs to 2.0 cm; and a striking row of sharply terminated, glassy milky quartz crystals are dramatically clustered on the sparkly drusy quartz-covered vug on this impressive and excellent large combination piece from Jalgaon. Two quartz crystal tips are gently bruised and a gently cleaved face to one of the calcites are noted. The bit of periphery wear is a very modest detraction to this way above average combination zeolite specimen. Rarely do you see such large aggregates of these species, and so it is significant as well as nice for the display qualities. It displays very well from either side. Valued at $600.
