3.2" Polished Blue-Green Prehnite Section - Australia

This is a 3.2" wide polished prehnite section, collected from Wave Hill, Australia. The "back side" has been left in its rough natural state, however the "front" has been cut and polished. The polishing reveals the beautiful prehnite formation and the mottled mixture of colors.

This specimen comes with an acrylic display stand.
