A large, mounded combination from the 2021 Nashik finds, centered on a fine color-zoned apophyllite crystal surrounded by smaller crystals of the same kind. The glassy, translucent tetragonal crystals have rich mint-green centers and colorless terminations, with modified corners on the terminations.

The sculptural, mounded apophyllite sits on a matrix of pearly, milky bladed stilbite, and the contrast between the two is strong. Bicolor apophyllite, with green cores and clear tips, is a particularly attractive variety from the Deccan basalts.

At 23 cm and 2.1 kg, it is a substantial display specimen.
