Comment: A beautifully aesthetic cabinet piece featuring a 12.0 x 6.6 x 6.5 cm "matrix" of crystallized pale peach stilbite, the top covered attractively with sprays of needle-like white scolecite crystals. Sits perfectly for display and shows nicely all around 360 degrees. I am sure that I can ship this safely to you; it will shed a few crystals in transit but the specimen itself will not be hurt. Ex Dr. Richard Webster collection; previous label from Crystals of India. Ref: The Mineralogical Record: 34: 3-82.

Minerals: Scolecite ( in reference to the minerals reaction to the blowpipe flame.) Stilbite
