This Prehnite from Aït Karmousse in Fès-Meknès Region, Morocco displays a very distinctive and unusual crystal form - like bow-ties aggregated in a small cabinet-sized cluster. The crystals are glossy and a pale off-peppermint green colour and show excellent terminations. Unfortunately, there is significant damage to be seen around the specimen otherwise with its other attributes it would be an extremely high class Prehnite. As it stands it is still a very good example of this unusual crystal form.
