Here is a very aesthetic and lustrous, radial Prehnite aggregate accented by a little Calcite from Goboboseb. The seafoam-green Prehnite hemisphere measures 4.4 cm across and is composed of divergent, blades nearly 2 cm in length and 2 to 3 mm in width that reflect any incident light in a radial pattern as you rotate the piece! Super attractive! There is a small cluster of ivory colored Calcite on one side for contrast. On the opposite side of the piece, the Prehnite is dusted with just little bit fine grained Calcite. You can get bigger specimens with different shapes, but this is a unique radial pinwheel on matrix, a very nice small cabinet piece!
