This is a rare find for sure. This is a piece that features translucent colorless Chalcedony over acicular red-orange Scolecite. It’s a rare find, let alone one that is complete. In addition, the base of this specimen contains a second partial “sunburst” Scolecite. This...

Typical Mesolite sprays with their fragile, needle-like crystals are a challenge to transport to say the least. That’s what I love about this piece - all of the Mesolite crystals are within a vug, thus offering protection to the Mesolite crystals from the environment...

This is a really unique piece - just the sheer size of the main Mesolite sphere is impressive. Also, some might expect Mesolite to be a sphere of delicate needles, but in this case it is more globular with spiky protrusions. The contrast between...

A very large, striking specimen of highly translucent, lustrous Apophyllite crystals on a contrasting dark brown matrix. The crystals are pseudo-cubic with modified corners and are a brilliant white color. Not your normal Zeolite! In excellent condition. Location: Jalgaon, Maharashtra, India Size: 17 x 10 x...

This is an exceptionally large specimen of a classic “bowtie” Stilbite, nearly 5” (12.5 cm) wide! It is perfect, and I don’t say that often. It has just a small bit of Heulandite matrix attached to the bottom to give it balance and contrast. One...

What started out as a large, highly translucent yellow Calcite crystal eventually became overgrown on the sides and back with doubly-terminated transparent colorless Apophyllite crystals. The end result is a gemmy, highly vitreous, contrasting and highly aesthetic specimen of Calcite with Apophyllite. I’ve only...

A very aesthetic piece that that is covered with light green Apophyllite crystals. Set among the Apophyllite crystals are numerous Stilbite crystals, several having a “bowtie” crystal formation. The pearly luster of this piece is outstanding. But wait - be sure to look at...

This is a really interesting piece. The contrast really caught my eye. On one hand you have this large cluster of pristine bow-tie Stilbite crystals with a beautiful pearly luster, set atop a chalky-like matrix of Mordenite with an appearance not unlike a dried...

I’m generally not a big fan of most Zeolites, mainly because they’re overabundant and usually of poor quality. But I discovered a handful that I couldn’t look the other way and picked them up. These Stilbites are perfectly formed, translucent with a beautiful pearl...

Whenever I see a crystal that has a perfect termination, is representative of the specific mineral, great luster and color and set nicely on a contrasting matrix, regardless of what mineral it is, I want it. And thus, this Stilbite! Location: Jalgaon, Maharashtra, India Size: 10.5...

A really fascinating piece - a geode lined with quartz drusy hosting three complete undamaged Scolecite sprays with three openings to allow greater visibility and lighting. The Scolecite shows perfect acicular crystal formation. Unique specimen and great show piece. Location: Nashik, Maharashtra, India Size: 15 x...

A plate featuring much less common red Stilbite crystals. The main crystal appears to be the upper half of the common bow-tie crystal formation (the other half being covered by Chalcedony crystals). Great contrast, rare piece and no damage. Location: Nashik, India Size: 14.3 x 14 x...

This is a classic specimen of red-orange radiating acicular Scolecite crystals coated with translucent colorless Chalcedony, creating this unique and beautiful sunburst look. An awesome specimen and great show piece! No damage. Location: Chandanapuri, Nashik, Maharashtra, India Size: 9 x 7.5 x 5 cm

A beautiful specimen of Prehnite coated with a clear Apophyllite and hosting numerous rectangular Apophyllite crystals. The crystals are transparent and gemmy. There are also numerous Gyrolite spherical aggregates (ok, Gyrolite balls, just didn’t like the sound of that . . . ) for...

A beautiful specimen of Prehnite coated with a clear Apophyllite and hosting numerous rectangular Apophyllite crystals. The crystals are transparent, gemmy, and a few are quite large, which contribute to this piece's amazing glassy luster. A showy piece, in excellent condition. Location: Mumbai, Maharashtra, India Size: 20.5...

This huge geode has a lot going on. First there are the “puff-ball” formations of Okenite throughout the geode, but then you’ll notice there is a nodular aggregate of Gyrolite on the left side, and lining the geode is a quartz drusy with several...

This is a very large, unusual and rare plate of intergrown Mordenite balls. I simply haven’t seen anything quite like it. Mordenite is considered one of the rarer Zeolites, yet there’s still plenty around - but a plate like this - not so much....

There are countless Zeolites out there, but not many that have this combination and perfection. With two pristine Stilbite crystals sitting centered next to a flawless, large, transparent water-clear pyramidal Apophyllite crystal on top of numerous smaller gemmy Stilbite crystals all on a contrasting...

This large plate is covered with exceptional Stilbite and Apophyllite crystals. The contrast between the pearly Stilbite and the glassy, transparent Apophyllite crystals is eye-catching, and the entire piece sparkles. A great piece, no damage. Location: Jalgaon, Maharashtra, India Size: 15 x 11 x 6 cm...

This is an incredible piece. A very large, beautiful spray of Cavansite sandwiched in-between two plates of micro crystalline Stilbite (Look at the size of the quarter which is in front and then the size of the Cavansite - it’s unusually large). You won’t...

This is a huge geode filled with massive Apophyllite crystals and secondary Stilbite crystals. What really caught my eye was the size, light green color, pearly luster and translucency to transparency of the Apophyllite crystals - just amazing! Balanced really well with a small...

The center of this Stilbite lined vug features a large, pristine clear and green zoned Apophyllite crystal. The Apophyllite is a perfectly formed, doubly terminated pseudocubic (fancy name for rectangular) crystal with modified corners. I rarely see Apophyllite crystals this large, perfectly formed, with...

This is not your typical Apophyllite and Stilbite piece out of India - the Apophyllite crystals are clear, gemmy and perfectly terminated and the Stilbite crystals are a light salmon color with a pearl luster. The overall piece is so lustrous it looks wet!...

This is a beautifully balanced and aesthetic specimen of water clear, transparent Apophyllite. Positioned perfectly in the center of a mass of lustrous Apophyllite crystals, is a large, perfect pyramidal Apophyllite crystal, but to the left is a large rectangular crystal, contrasting two distinct...
