SOLD
A SUPERB and AESTHETIC Indian combination piece from the now-closed Malad Quarry, near Bombay. A large, 3.5 cm, translucent, pastel yellowish-greenish, lamellar gyrolite ball is beautifully set on a sawed plate richly sprinkled with smaller gyrolite and colorless prehnite balls. The white matrix is coated with beige, drusy prehnite. This is one of the very finest Indian gyrolites that I have seen. Ex. George Feist Collection #1855.
