Sculptural specimen composed of interconnected, translucent spheres of green Prehnite atop Epidote crystals. This is formerly a Tim Sherburn collection specimen. Tim used to buy these uncleaned in bulk, trim and clean them, and then sell them individually to collectors. This is a top specimen from the many thousands he cleaned, probably the most aesthetic, at least the prettiest I can recall ever seeing.
