Cube-form apophyllite with white chalcedony from Nashik. Large, blocky, frosted apophyllite crystals with square edges sit above a cluster of smaller crystals, and short fingers of white chalcedony curl along one side, adding a soft, rounded texture beside the angular crystals.
Apophyllite crystallizes in the tetragonal system, and some Deccan pockets yield blocky, square-sided crystals with flat terminations that collectors call apophyllite cubes, a less common habit than the familiar pointed pyramids.
A well-balanced cabinet piece combining cubic apophyllite with chalcedony.
