Item Description
A nifty parallel-growth pair of light mint-green prehnite after long, straw-like, laumontite crystals from the famous and mostly closed quarries around Bombay. Both pseudos are hollow and their tips are pristine. This is classic, old-time and excellent material from the Jaime Bird Collection. It dates to the 1970s, when these first came to the US market.
