Item Description
These are relatively recent specimens to the market, but they are unqiue and attractive. This piece features three, beautiful mint-green spherical aggregates of translucent, nubby, prehnite measuring up to 1.5 cm sitting on very gemmy quartz crystal matrix. The overall combination quality of the piece is VERY GOOD compared to most I have handled. A fine prehnite and quartz specimen from this locality that is best known for the superb babingtonite crystals that were recently found.
