Prehnite is a translucent to transparent pale green mineral belonging to the phyllosilicate family. First identified in 1788 and named after Dutch military officer Colonel Hendrik von Prehn, this gemstone is often associated with minerals such as calcite and epidote, commonly occurring in basaltic rocks.
Prehnite is renowned for its distinctive crystal forms, which can range from prismatic and tabular to botryoidal shapes. Its soothing green hue and glossy appearance make it a favored choice for jewelry, including beads, cabochons, and artistic carvings.
