Item Description

Striking puffballs of beautiful snow-white okenite needles richly line the sculptural deep vug with starkly contrasting nubby greenish-yellow gyrolite on this fine large specimen from this extinct quarry. The soaring population of Mumbai closed the quarries in the area. Such well-developed and protected okenite vugs are seldom available. Choice and excellent older styled INdian material from the Art Soregaroli Collection.
