Green Apophyllite Crystal Cluster from India
Product Information
A striking natural Green Apophyllite specimen from India, featuring substantial pale green crystals surrounded by contrasting clear, white and smoky-toned mineral growth.
The centrepiece of this specimen is its beautiful soft mint-green Apophyllite, forming large geometric crystals with broad, glassy faces. The colour is wonderfully delicate, shifting from almost colourless in the more transparent areas to a noticeably fresh pale green where the crystals become thicker.
Rather than forming as an isolated cluster, the Green Apophyllite remains attached to its natural matrix, with areas of earthy brown host rock visible along one side. Small white crystalline formations grow around the matrix and between the larger crystals, creating an intricate contrast against the smooth, architectural faces of the Apophyllite.
Several additional clear-to-smoky crystals project around the main formation, giving the specimen plenty to explore from different angles. Some are beautifully transparent, revealing natural internal veils and inclusions, while others catch the light across sharply defined faces.
One of the most attractive features of this piece is the contrast in crystal habit: large, blocky pale-green crystals sit alongside finer white growth and smaller transparent crystals, giving the specimen a wonderfully natural, untouched appearance.
Measuring approximately 68.3 × 58.8mm, this is a substantial and highly displayable Green Apophyllite specimen with beautiful colour, crystal definition and natural matrix detail.
About Green Apophyllite
Apophyllite is the name commonly used for a group of phyllosilicate minerals prized by mineral collectors for their highly reflective lustre and distinctive crystal formations.
Green Apophyllite owes its appeal to its delicate colouring, which can range from an extremely pale watery green through to more noticeable mint and yellow-green shades. Its crystals can display exceptional transparency alongside beautifully defined geometric faces.
India is particularly well known within the mineral world for producing impressive Apophyllite specimens, often occurring alongside other minerals and natural matrix material.
The combination of pale green colour, large individual crystal faces and contrasting surrounding growth gives this specimen plenty of visual interest while preserving the character of its natural formation.
Associated Intention
Growth & Success

Associated Chakra
Heart Chakra
Green Apophyllite is commonly associated with the Heart Chakra, traditionally connected with compassion, emotional openness, connection and balance.
While clear and white Apophyllite is often linked with the Crown Chakra, the green variety is more strongly associated with the Heart.
