Item Description
From the private Indian collection of Charlie Key, a select example of the famous Celadonite-included Heulandite from the Nasik District of India. This excellent specimen is an amazing 14.8 cm overall, and has select, curved crystals in clusters that are celadon-green and range up to 4.5 cm in length. The majority of this wonderful specimen is composed of numerous 5 cm delicate, curved crystals that terminate in attractive Heulandite 'flowers' along the top and front. The color is classic, and the silky/matte luster is appealing and suits the specimen well. For its condition, size, and aesthetics this is one of the finest of these I have seen, with a neat "flowing" look to it.
