Apophyllite on Stilbite finger -well pocket find
Rahuri, Ahmadnagar District,
Maharashtra, India
7.4 x 4 x 1.6 CM (cabinet)
price: $400
Spring 2019
A fine example of the radiating habit of flat tip green Apophyllite crystals in flowerlike form. The stalk of Stilbite is a choice contrasting matrix for the gem clear Apophyllites. in perfect, undamaged condition the Apophyllites are water clear at the tips and nearly colorless, they grade to a fine mint green lower down and the color is transmitted through the entire crystal. very good value from the second well pocket (there have been at least 4 in 12 years, each a little different). This was a unique small pocket with the fingerlike stalks of Stilbite in stalactitic form.
