This specimen features hydroxyapophyllite crystals with lizardite and calcite on matrix. Properly called "hydroxyapophyllite-(K)," hydroxyapophyllite is a variety of apophyllite that is typically colorless. It more frequently grows cubic crystals, but these specimens from the renowned N'Chwaning Mines region form tabular square crystals similar to wulfenite, and can be colorless to semi-translucent white with inclusions.

This specimen has a cluster of intersecting hydroxyapophyllite crystals topped with a cluster of small scalenohedral calcite crystals. The matte light brown mineral coating is lizardite, which often grows in small spots along the junctions of the hydroxyapophyllite crystal. Calcite covers the back of the specimen. The dark matrix is likely manganese-based; the N'Chwaning mines were established to extract the rich manganese ore in the area. The coffee-brown staining may be iron.

UV reactivity Some calcite fluoresces and phosphoresces weak red under 365 nm UV light. It can cause the hydroxyapophyllite crystals growing over it to glow a faint red—try it in a dark room with a strong flashlight.

** Brittle warning! Hydroxyapophyllite specimens are somewhat delicate and may shed pieces; limit handling.

Love it
Color: White, Color: White
This is so beautiful! It's very good quality. I got this for my daughter to keep her jewelry in and it's perfect. It has three floors, the top opens for a ring compartment, and the sides open for necklaces. All the compartments have pink velvet on the inside. I really like the size of this, not too big but not too small. It fits perfectly on an over the toilet shelf or the bathroom counter. A great but with a decent price.

Beautiful Jewelry Storage
Color: White
A lovely jewelry box! Definitely worth the price. I love the little mirror inside, because it is useful when putting on my earrings. I do wish that one of the drawers was divided into smaller sections for bracelet storage, but overall the storage is amazing. Love the hooks for necklaces and the ring storage. It’s very pretty with the pink lining. Gorgeous for any space, and would make a lovely gift
