💎 Description
A substantial prehnite specimen with broad, dense coverage of pale apple green botryoidal aggregates across the full display face. The rounded lobes are well-developed and catch light evenly, giving the piece a clean, polished character despite being wholly natural. Some lobes are larger and more distinct, adding gentle dimensionality to the surface. Dark matrix frames the prehnite on the edges and base, providing strong contrast to the soft green.
The piece is hefty at over 12 oz, sits solidly on its base, and presents well from the front and both sides.
