A multi-mineral combination from Nashik: peach-orange stilbite and heulandite bowties perched on a calcite crystal coated in gray chalcedony, shown on a clear stand. The warm zeolites fan out above the cool, glassy-gray base.
The coating records a later stage of silica growth over the original calcite, and the stilbite and heulandite crystallized on top of it. The color contrast between the two layers is the main appeal.
An unusual cabinet specimen.
