Gemmy, well-defined calcite crystals resting on a bed of very sparkling apophyllite, from Jalgaon. The apophyllite catches light across the whole base, and the calcite sits cleanly on top, so the piece shimmers as it is turned.
Calcite and apophyllite often grow together in the basalt cavities of the Deccan Traps. Here both are bright and well formed, and the contrast between the smooth calcite and the faceted apophyllite is the main appeal.
An attractive cabinet piece that displays well from several angles.
