Beautiful, sharp, stacked calcite crystals with excellent lustre from Chenzhou. The key feature of these calcites is that they are in fact comprised of two generations of calcite – there is an internal core of a single white scalenohedral crystal, and it is overgrown by flattened calcite crystals. The flattened crystals have highly lustrous small […]

This specimen features sharp, lustrous subparallel quartz crystals and fans of light green prehnite. The prehnite crystals are also sharp and lustrous, with great terminations. In excellent condition – no damage to the prehnite and minor incomplete quartz. A pretty combination of these two minerals! Please note: these prehnite photographs are colour-balanced to daylight (sunny […]

This thin plate of quartz crystals hosts fans of prehnite crystals, grouped such that together they almost have the appearance of a flower. The larger fans form an almost complete wheel and smaller fans stand up in the middle. The prehnite crystals are sharp and lustrous. In excellent condition, no damage. An aesthetic specimen with […]

This is a wonderful combination of light green prehnite crystals and quartz crystals that have a light red tint (due to hematite). The prehnite crystals are in radiating groups, and the top of the piece covered by prehnite crystal terminations. The quartz crystals are sharp and lustrous as well. In excellent condition, one incomplete crystal […]

This cabinet specimen features two main groups of radiating prehnite crystals, along with small prehnite crystal fans and lustrous quartz crystals. The prehnite crystals are light green to yellow, with distinct terminations – they are sharp with good lustre. The quartz crystals are flat-lying aggregates, with a sub-parallel growth a little reminiscent of the Brazilian […]

Radiating crystal groups of prehnite, all grouped together, this piece is made up of the terminations of all of the prehnite fans. The prehnite crystals are sharp and glassy – great lustre and very nice light green colour. In excellent condition, no damage as displayed (a few incomplete crystals around the right side, out of […]

This piece is comprised of intergrown radiating fans of light green prehnite crystals and small amount of quartz as well. These prehnite crystals are sharp with lustrous, glassy terminations.In excellent condition – no damage. About photo orientation – the third photo is at about a 45 degree angle to the plane of the specimen. A […]

Intergrown fans of radiating crystals, this is a beautiful prehnite. The crystals are sharp and glassy, with nice light green colour and good separation between the lustrous terminations. In excellent condition, no damage. Really sweet! Please note: these prehnite photographs are colour-balanced to daylight (sunny day, shade – same as all photos on the website). […]

This plate features radiating groups of prehnite crystals, intergrown together. The crystals are lustrous and sharp, and the bright terminations stand out nicely from one another. In excellent condition. Displays really nicely, supported to stand as photographed. These are beautiful prehnite crystals! Please note: these prehnite photographs are colour-balanced to daylight (sunny day, shade – […]
