Apophyllite Deep Green with Stilbite Natural Mineral Specimen # B 4009

Features
A cabinet specimen with the outstanding aesthetics of this piece. The base is defined by a field of pale pink, bladed stilbite crystals. A some point, the chemistry of the vug allowed for the development of apophyllite, and a group of deep-green, perfectly-transparent crystals developed with their axes largely at right-angles to the growth direction of the stilbite. Terminating above the apophyllite as a sub-spherical rosette. The end result is a study in form, and the contrast of colour, luster, texture and crystal form.
