We are excited to offer these incredibly vibrant natural green prehnite crystals in our collection. While the highest grades tend to go into polished item production such as points, spheres, or jewelry items, many of these stones have outstanding potential for a variety of crafts and applications. Some mineral deposits do exist on the surface, however we have managed to remove most of them using our natural methods of cleaning and polishing.
