A showy CABINET spire of pearlescent-luster scolecite needles from the extinct Malad Quarry near Bombaby, India. The perpendicular scolecite cluster near the base adds character to this piece. The quarry closed due to population growth and these pieces are no longer available, except from recycled collections. MUCH BETTER in person. 12.3 x 5.3 x 3.0 cm
