Stellerite

Item Description

Fine crystallized Stellerites are only found in a handful of world localities, and to find one in a large cabinet specimen such as this is remarkably rare. The quality of this particular Stellerite is nearly as good as the species gets, especially from the standpoint of size. It comprises dozens of sheaf-like crystals which have formed into spherical aggregates creating a very visceral and aesthetic overall specimen. The largest "ball" measures 6.0 cm across. It has top luster with a smooth creamy beige color and is nearly completely undamaged on the display side. One does not encounter Stellerites like this from any locality, and the quality leaves nothing to be desired. If you are a Zeolite collector, or simply enjoy outstanding large specimens of minerals that are seldom seen in such quality, do not miss out on this significant piece. Valued at $2,000.
