Item Description
A beautiful, 7.0 cm, fan-shaped spray of highly lustrous, parallel-growth heulandite blades very aesthetically set in a sculptural vug filled with sparkly, stalactitic, drusy quartz from Jalgaon. The blades have striking, variable, rust-red, hematite tinting, which adds much color and character. Nearly pristine, with only a trivial bit of termination wear to the longest crystal and minor contacting on the upper left corner, but with very little bruising, per se. The architecture and color of this long and lovely heulandite are most excellent. Valued at $500-600.
