Chalcedony on orange Scolecite
Malegaon, Nasik
Maharashtra, India
5.1 x 3.3 x 2.4 CM (small cabinet/ large miniature)
price: $760
A very strange and fascinating specimen of what has been called Caviar Agate, forming translucent balls perched on needles growing from orange Scolecite. We have only ever seen examples of this from two small finds, very few specimens have made it to the market. This one has several options for viewing and display, the balls have a light gray to blueish hue and almost seem violet in some light. These are all perched of slender, transparent needles of Scolecite that extend from a radiating cluster that forms the base. A very nice piece for a Zeolite collection, or anyone who like really odd minerals!
