Description

Dozens of gorgeous, light pink, and some even partially gemmy Fluorapophyllite-K crystals sit on top of the contrasting yellow felt made of Stilbite and Calcite. The bigger Apophyllite crystals are mostly zoned ranging from white to light pink color and a lot of them are doubly terminated. The Stilbites are bright and leafy while the Calcites are dull. Some very small Pyrite crystals make their appearance as well. This is a very interesing specimen (and quite large!), not offered too often and to top it off it comes from an old collection with its original and labelled box seen on the picture.

Please read the QR code under the "LABELS" tab and watch the video to get a better impression of the specimen!
