Prehnite with Epidote on Matrix Mineral Specimen

$35.00

Description

This elegant prehnite specimen features softly rounded, pale green crystal growths clustered across a natural matrix accented by dark epidote. The prehnite displays a gentle translucency with a waxy to pearly luster, creating a soothing visual contrast against the darker, more angular epidote inclusions beneath.

The overall composition feels balanced and organic, with the prehnite forming naturally domed aggregates that rise gently from the matrix. Subtle tonal variation within the crystals adds depth without overpowering the specimen’s understated elegance.

Dimensions & Weight

Measurement: 3.5” x 2” x 1.5”

Weight: 179g

Collector’s Notes

Prehnite specimens with epidote are highly regarded for their classic association and visual contrast. This piece highlights that relationship beautifully, making it an excellent example for collectors who appreciate refined color palettes and well-preserved matrix specimens.

Highlights

  • Pale green prehnite with soft crystal texture

  • Epidote present on the matrix

  • Highly Collectible 

  • Excellent contrast between crystal and matrix

  • High Luster 

Metaphysical Properties

Prehnite is often associated with inner clarity and intuition, while epidote is traditionally linked to growth and personal transformation. Together, they are thought to encourage mindful progress and energetic renewal.

Mineralogy

  • Prehnite: Calcium aluminum silicate forming botryoidal to crystalline aggregates

  • Epidote: Calcium aluminum iron silicate present on the matrix
