Item Description
Pearlescent, ivory stilbite blades are beautifully festooned on the bowl-shaped, triangular matrix of tranlucent, pretty mint-green, prehnite botryoids. The prehnite glows with geen color, when backlit (very hard to photograph). Such striking color combinations are rare from Mali, especially in this quality.
