7.2 x 3.7 x 3.5 cm. This is a superb cavansite specimen featuring a huge cluster measuring nearly 3 cm in the longest direction. The color is an intense, peacock blue.
4.5 x 4.4 x 3.9 cm. Perched on the edge of the stilbite-covered matrix, this cavansite cluster measures 2.2 cm across, and has superb color.
20.4 x 16.8 x 6.8 cm. This is a very large plate Indian combination specimen. There is a gorgeous balance here of large, gemmy apophyllites (to 5 cm) with peachy, pearly stilbites on a gently curving, concave matrix.
8.9 x 8.9 x 8.4 cm. A strikingly sculptural specimen of colorless apophyllite crystals that have intergrown with one another and with pearly stilbites - with a later generation of tiny, snow-like apophyllites on stalactitic extensions from the center of the specimen.
20.4 x 5.4 x 4 cm. A superb plate of steeply-terminated fluorapophyllite crystals set upon milky stilbite crystals.
25.0 x 19.0 x 8.5 cm. A superb, large Indian combination specimen. In the center of a field of large, cream to peach-colored stilbites is a cluster of super bright and gemmy green apophyllites, to 8 cm in length. The apophyllites are wonderfully centered along a strip running through the pearly stilbites.
7.5 x 5.3 x 3.7 cm. A superb cavansite specimen from the Wagholi Quarry of India. A 3.5 cm, club-shaped cavansite crystal cluster is supremely well-placed in a vug on a sculptural, pear-shaped basalt matrix lined with sparkly stilbite microblades. The cavansite has excellent, two-toned royal-blue color and lustre.
A beautiful cluster of lustrous hexagonal and bladed salmon-pink stilbite crystals from Jalgaon, India, with unusual aesthetics. 8.1 x 4.5 x 4.0 cm
13.2 x 8.9 x 7.4 cm. Large, gemmy apophyllites with blocky form and flat terminations, intergrown with pearly, light peach-colored blooms of beautiful stilbite in a fine balance.
8.8 x 8.8 x 4.2 cm. This superb Indian stilbite bowtie sits up completely off the matrix and is a deep peach color.
A superb and aesthetic Indian zeolite specimen of lustrous, translucent salmon-colored stilbite blades plus a downright gorgeous 5.4 cm long highly lustrous stilbite bowtie, all on a nicely contrasting druze of sparkly green quartz from Jalgaon, India. There are lots of stilbites out there, but this one is hard to beat. 7.7 x 7.5 x 4.0 cm
22.9 x 13.8 x 14.8 cm. A beautifully trimmed-out side of a large pocket gleaming with crystals - gemmy, light green apophyllites; pearly, slightly peach-colored stilbites; and even some very large calcite crystals, once of them very large - quite unusual to see, in fact, with these combination pieces.
17.6 x 15.4 x 12.9 cm. A transparent, light golden calcite crystal sharp as a razor and measuring over 5 cm along the edge is beautifully centered in a pocket lined with micro apophyllites. The calcite is sharply twinned, as you can see from the many planes and angles showing, and is also nice for its translucence. A little "bridge" extends from the calcite, connected with a bit of peach-colored stilbite.
7.2 x 5.2 x 4.2 cm. Clusters of peacock-blue cavansite leap out at you from the contrasting, pearly crystals of stilbite.
7.5 x 6.8 x 3.3 cm. Two peacock-blue clusters of cavansite, in pristine condition, perfectly centered on a matrix covered with a bed of sparkly stilbite. The cavansites measure to 1.7 cm.
