Item Description
An outstanding and aesthetic combination specimen from this recent find, just highlighted in the current Mineralogical Record issue. Good timing! Translucent spheres of pretty green, bladed prehnite, to 2.6 cm, are dramatically clustered between two, opposing, sharply terminated, lustrous, olive-green epidote crystals. The large epidote is 4.8 cm. The display view is pristine. Valued at $450.
