Item Description

Stellerite is RARE from the famous trap rock deposits of Jalgaon compared to apophyllite, stilbite and heulandite. This is a superb and aesthetic large combination from the D.R. Kennedy Collection. Two striking, very glassy and translucent, cream colored spherical aggregates of stellerite crystals, to 6.0 cm, are beautifully set in the large vug with smaller apophyllite and stilbite crystals and a strikingly contrasting patch of green celadonite-infused chalcedony. The stellerites are pristine on this outstanding and uncommon large combination. A top-class and rare large Zeolite Group specimen valued at $1250-1500.
