Two sharp, saddle shaped, doubly-terminated crystals of heulandite, on a bit of attached rear matrix, comprise this elegant specimen. The crystals, which parallel each other's curves and twists, are a translucent, eggshell color, with the most intense pearlescent luster one can imagine. Each crystal is about 8 cm long, and pristine! This is NOT your common level of heulandite! 8.9 x 5.8 x 3.1 cm
