A porcupine-style spray of very fine scolecite inside a quartz geode from Pune. The needles are thin and soft-looking, almost thread-like, and radiate in a dense cluster from within the cavity.
Small, bright quartz crystals line the geode, and its dark outer rind gives a strong frame to the white scolecite. The contrast between the glittering quartz lining, the fine needles and the black shell is the main appeal of the piece.
Pune district sits in the heart of the Deccan Traps zeolite region, and scolecite in quartz geodes is one of its characteristic combinations.
