An impressive collection of 70 crude-looking pieces of Australian Prehnite will make an exceptional addition to any bead collection.
It’s always nice to have a selection of semi-precious beads on hand to use when creating jewellery – such as a lovely pair of earrings, a bracelet or necklace dangle or pendant, or even as a keyring feature.
Besides being a very interesting-looking yellowish green semi-precious stone, Prehnite is said to help improve memory, enhance intuition, and has the ability to assist in retaining information over time.
All the pieces in this little collection have been cut in an abstract manner, while each bead contains a 1-1.5mm threading hole – which has also been applied in a nonfigurative manner which makes these slices of Prehnite very unique.
First discovered in South Africa in the late-1700s, the majority of the world’s Prehnite today comes from Australia, Scotland, South Africa, China, and the United States.
Aside from Prehnite, our worldwide bead repository also contains a number of highly prized semi-precious stones which include Mother of Pearl, Onyx, Rose, Clear, Strawberry, & Cherry Quartz, Moonstone, Blue Lace & Moss Agate, Aquamarine, Amethyst, Green Fluorite, Peridot, Jade, Lapis Lazuli, Citrine, Sunstone, Tiger Eye, Mookaite, Peridot, Black, Mahogany, & Snowflake Obsidian, Carnelian, African & Himalayan Turquoise, Opal Art, Golden Amphibole, Red & Rainforest Jasper, Kyanite, Malachite, Aventurine, Prehnite, Chrysoprase, Green Diopside, Tourmaline, and Haematite,
