Stellerite & Prehnite on Epidote (fine)

Item Description

A rare, striking, sculptural and surprising combination from this obsure Mali locale. The lustrous, translucent, pastel-yellow stellerite corsages are artistically scattered on the intergrown bladed botryoids of translucent, mint-green prehnite. The MAJOR surprise on the back is that the prehnite has overgrown a sculptural cluster of lustrous, partially translucent, olive-green epidote prisms! The contact, lower on the prehnite, where another crystal once lay, has no damage per se, and is certainly only a very modest detraction. Rare and exceptional combination material in this quality and form from this locale. Valued at $500.
