Item Description
A very rare and showy pseudomorph from this well-known district, from finds in the 1980s I am told. Sparkly mint-green prehnite has pseudomorphed isolated, hexagonal pokerchip calcite crystals on the prehnite-covered thin basalt crust. The striking large pseudo is 4.5 cm across. Highly aesthetic, and stark in its form, this is a fine example of this rare Indian pseudomorph style. Valued at $750-1000. BETTER IN PERSON!!
