An elegant, delicate example of stilbite on chalcedony, the classic combination of the Indian trap rocks, from Jalgaon. Chalcedony has coated a set of narrow, winding stalactites and continued to grow, forming structures that range from straw-thin fingers to thicker stalks.
These winding chalcedony stalks serve as the matrix, and lustrous, translucent, pearly crystals of salmon-colored stilbite sit jauntily on top. The warm stilbite against the pale, branching chalcedony makes for an unusually graceful composition.
At only 46 g, this is a fine-boned piece that rewards close viewing.
