Apophyllite Geode with Calcite & Heulandite

Material: Zeolite Pocket with Apophyllite on Basalt (with pale stilbite/calcite notes) Weight: 712 grams Dimensions: Approx. 15 x 9 x 7 cm (5.9 x 3.5 x 2.8 inches) Finish: Naturally opened geode; lustrous apophyllite blades and micro‑crystalline druse lining the cavity Origin: Deccan Traps, Maharashtra, India Pantone Colors: 12-4302 TCX Glacier Gray (apophyllite), 11-0602 TCX Snow White (druse), 18-0201 TCX Magnet (basalt host), 12-0713 TCX Whitecap Gray (pale peach/cream cluster) A substantial Deccan geode where each wall tells its own story. The cavity is lined with a fine, starry druse that throws light in every direction. From this “sky,” crisp apophyllite blades step outward in stacked, glassy plates. On one side sits a soft, creamy calcite cluster—satiny and warm against the silver field. Turn the piece and you’ll find a separate bloom of peach‑toned heulandite, its gently radiating blades adding color and texture contrast. The outer basalt is left honest with rhythmic preparation marks; rims show intact crystal edges.
