Deep, royal blue cavansite with iridescent luster, is perched on a glistening matrix of stilbite crystals, on this wonderful specimen. The main cavansite "ball" of crystals reaches 3 cm across, with the little ball atop of it reaching 1.3cm. It has been professionally trimmed for the best possible display and features a large cluster of cavansite that is rare to find these days. This specimen is part of a parcel of cavansite specimens accumulated by a friend in India over the last 20 years; all with the best hot blue color. This particular specimen has an unusually fine, isolated aesthetic to the cluster atop.
