Blue Tanzanite crystals with attached yellow Prehnite crystals. Aesthetic, colorful combination of the two species that is natural and unheated. There are two complete Tanzanite crystals (and a partial crystal) and two Prehnite. Much of the main Tanzanite is transparent and gem quality. The lower Prehnite is a cluster of crystals and the upper is a perfect, doubly-terminated single crystal. Ex. Mike Keim Merelani suite.
