Item Description
Very fine set of gorgeous, radial clusters of Prehnite. The translucent, almost gemmy, crystals form in the classic habit of balls consisting of radial aggregates. The color is a light mint green, and the luster is excellent. There are four intergrown spheres, the largest and most well-developed of them is 2.3 cm across. Naturally, there is some contacting on the sides of the specimen, but it does not affect the complete, major spheres, or the overall aesthetics. Prehnites of this quality are rare from ANY locale.
