Item Description

Another showy old-time classic from the famous basalt deposits at Wasson's Bluff. Sharp, interpenetrating, pseudo-rhombohedral, triclinic, partially lustrous orangy-tan chabazite crystals, to 1.3 cm, with satin luster faces dramatically fill a very sculptural vug. From an East Coast collection and comes with a century-old faded and water-stained label. Exceptional form and richness on this small cabinet vug.
