This is a specimen of sea-glass-green, bladed prehnite with quartz on a colorful matrix found in Imilchil, Morocco. The prehnite crystals formed in acicular fans that resemble feathered coral ledges. The alluring, delicate prehnite is enhanced by the solid presence of the quartz which creates a visually balanced specimen.
