AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
From our selection of collectible minerals we offer a remarkable group of Stilbite crystals from Jalgaon District, Maharashtra, India.
Furthermore, it is characterized by crystals with a white, pink, and yellowish bloom, arranged in radiating aggregates on a matrix and of considerable size, which enhance its aesthetic value and mineralogical importance. The specimen stands out for the quality of crystallization and for its overall aesthetic balance, with features that highlight its natural structure and visual impact.
Stilbite is a zeolite, a hydrated calcium- and sodium-silicate, which typically forms in the gas cavities of basaltic lava flows. The name derives from the Greek "stilbein" (to shine), in reference to the pearly luster of the crystal faces, often arranged in rosettes or butterfly shapes. The Deccan Traps region of Maharashtra is world-renowned for the quality of its zeolites, and the characteristic pinkish coloration of many Indian specimens is due to traces of iron oxides embedded in the crystal lattice.
This is an ideal specimen for mineral collections, display, and for those who appreciate the natural beauty of minerals, also within the context of crystal therapy and lithotherapy, according to the properties traditionally associated with the mineral species.
All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, except for rare exceptions always noted in the description. Photographs are taken with professional lighting to best showcase colors and details; however, slight variations in shade may occur depending on the device or ambient light.
Shipping is carried out via reliable and carefully selected express couriers, with fast delivery (in many cases 1–2 working days within Europe), trackable and insured shipping, and professional and secure packaging, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries can also take place the day after payment depending on the destination.
It is possible to accumulate multiple purchases and receive them in a single shipment, even from auctions with separate deadlines, simply by contacting us to arrange the consolidation. For important pieces, direct home delivery by appointment or at major European fairs is also available.
