About the Item
This superb specimen showcases brilliant blue Cavansite spheres perched on a sculptural matrix of lustrous white Stilbite crystals. The Cavansite displays striking saturation and perfect radial form, creating dramatic contrast against the Stilbite blades.
Cavansite is no longer produced anywhere in the world and used to be found in only one significant locality worldwide — the Wagholi Quarries in India — making fine examples extremely rare and highly coveted. The exceptional color balance, sharp crystal habit, and elegant aesthetics of this piece place it among the most desirable offerings for the discerning collector.
An outstanding opportunity to acquire a fine-quality Cavansite on Stilbite, worthy of display in any advanced mineral collection or museum setting.
