Locality: Shakur Quarry, Nasik District, Maharashtra, India
9.9 x 5.9 x 5.8 cm. This is a floater cluster of stilbite bowties, interesting and beautiful not only for its sculptural form, but also for the unusual inclusions that give it hues of a dark rust/purple color that complement the light cream color.
