A classic and showy New Jersey pseudomorph of glassy and lustrous, pastel-green prehnite after boxy and bladed anhydrite crystals from the famous Trap Rock basalts at Watchung. This fine piece is complete all-around and is undamaged. The base dramatically reveals that the large pseudo is hollow. Neat! Ex. George Elling Collection.
