A large, heavy jackstraw cluster of elongated laumontite crystals now fully replaced by mint-green, translucent prehnite. At 23 cm and nearly 1.2 kg, it is one of the more substantial examples of this classic Mumbai pseudomorph, with the crossed prisms packed densely enough to give the piece real heft.

Malad Quarry in Mumbai built its reputation on vintage material like this. Since its closure as the city grew, prehnite after laumontite has come almost exclusively from older collections and stock, and specimens of this size are increasingly difficult to source.
