Stilbite Crystal cluster - Height: 9.2 cm - Width: 7 cm- 400 g

Stilbite Crystal Cluster on Matrix A delicate and attractive Stilbite crystal cluster displaying a beautiful arrangement of pale peach to creamy-white crystals on a contrasting matrix. The specimen is composed of numerous well-developed Stilbite crystals, ranging from smaller intergrown individuals to larger, more prominent blades and tabular forms. Their soft peach tone, combined with a silky to vitreous lustre, gives the piece a refined and luminous appearance. Several crystals show pleasing surface striations and subtle transparency along the thinner edges, adding depth and character when viewed under light. The overall composition is lively and well balanced, with crystals rising in different directions and creating a naturally sculptural structure. Some of the larger individuals stand out clearly from the cluster, while the denser internal growth produces a sense of richness and complexity throughout the specimen. White matrix and secondary pale mineral growths remain visible between the crystals, creating an elegant contrast with the warmer tones of the Stilbite. The reverse and base preserve the darker host rock, emphasizing the natural origin of the piece and strengthening its visual presence. Stilbite is a well-known zeolite mineral, appreciated for its characteristic bladed or sheaf-like crystal habit and its gentle colour palette. Specimens of this type are particularly valued for their decorative appeal and their harmonious crystalline growth. A very attractive mineral specimen, appreciated for its soft peach colour, well-developed crystal forms and balanced overall presentation.
