Item Description

An attractive large miniature / small cabinet display specimen featuring translucent "water" green colored aggregates of Prehnite free of matrix from the seldom seen Copper Valley prospect in the Brandberg Area of Namibia. The piece is in good shape on the display side and looks beautiful with backlighting and in sunlight. If you collect Prehnite, don't miss out on this attractive specimen from an uncommon locality. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#10355). Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record and the 50+ page article in the German Magazine "Mineralien Welt" November-December 2017).
