A spectacular floater specimen, as pristine and perfect as you could ask for. It is an "infamous" piece illustrated in many advertisements in mineral magazines from the early 1990s. We have all seen a lot of Indian zeolites, but this particular piece is truly that extra bit of perfection! Ex. Matthew Webb collection. 4.7 x 3.4 x 1.3 cm
