description:
An attractive specimen featuring lustrous heulandite crystals measuring up to 1.0 cm scattered across the top of a pegmatite matrix, showing good form and bright surface quality typical of the species from this locality. The crystals are well distributed across the matrix, creating pleasing overall balance and display value. The specimen is in good condition and is accompanied by an antique label dating to the early 20th century, adding important historical provenance and collector appeal. The pegmatites of San Piero in Campo on the island of Elba are classic Italian mineral localities, long known for producing fine zeolites and related minerals from complex granitic pegmatite systems, making this a desirable example from a historically significant Tuscan locality.
