Prehnite captivates with its pale green glow, shifting from translucent to clear, and belongs to the intriguing phyllosilicate family. Discovered in 1788 and named after Colonel Hendrik von Prehn, this mineral often appears alongside calcite and epidote within basaltic rocks. Its striking crystal shapes—ranging from sharp prisms to smooth, rounded forms—make it stand out. Valued for its brilliant sheen and soothing green hue, prehnite is a bold choice for unique jewelry pieces, beads, cabochons, and artistic carvings that demand attention.
