A museum-sized group of chalcedony stalactites from Nashik, more than 25 cm long, with several knobby, coral-like fingers fused into a broad, upright form and shown on a clear stand. The surface is frosty and sparkling, pale blue-gray to cream, and many tips are doubly terminated. Contacts are minor.
In the gas pockets of the Deccan basalts, dripping silica can build long, slender chalcedony stalactites. When many grow together, the result resembles coral, which gives this material its trade name.
A large, complete specimen in excellent condition.
