Diverging sprays of gemmy, lustrous natrolite rising from a bed of sugary white quartz, set in a completely hollow, elongated basalt vug from Nashik. The bright white sprays fan out along the length of the cavity against the dark basalt rind.

A few natrolite crystals span the vug and attach to its ceiling, but most are visibly terminated. Natrolite is uncommon in the Indian basalts, where most needle-like zeolites are the related species scolecite, so well-formed natrolite sprays on quartz are a good find for zeolite collectors.

A clean, attractive cabinet specimen of Indian natrolite.
