Magnificent new product! An extraordinary pocket of Apophyllite discovered at the end of 2023. The crystals have a luminosity and brilliance never seen before, as soon as the samples are illuminated, the light is reflected in a sparkling way, the white stilbite matrix adding contrast to this mirror effect. These microcrystals form very aesthetic spheres with perfect crystallization. These pieces remind me by their appearance of certain Rhodochrosites from South Africa (typically "the N'Chwanning snail") which have this density of color and this incomparable brilliance. The group of crystals measures 1.2cm in diameter, harmoniously arranged on its stilbite matrix, An excellent Thumbnail
Dimensions without the acrylic base, which is supplied with the mineralogical specimen.
The mineral is not glued to the base (soft putty).
