A magnificent example of GEM analcime from this famous Italian locality!!! This specimen hosts a group of pristine GEM CLEAR crystals of
analcime on matrix!!! The analcime crystals are razor-sharp and have bright glassy luster!!! The crystals are so gemmy that one
can see through to the matrix features beneath the crystal!!! The crystals were so bright and gemmy that the camera had difficulty
capturing them!!! The crystals range in size up to 1.25cm!!! In addition to the analcime crystals, there is an area on the specimen that
hosts a cluster of curious, stepped triangular-shaped crystals of unknown identity!!! This specimen is simply amazing in person!!! The pics
hardly do it justice!!! Rare, old time material!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
