Phrenite is a pretty yellow green stone and found in Australia, South Africa, Germany, and the United States.


Gemstone Lore:
Phrenite is known as a Love, Protection, Power, and Healing stone.
Many believe that it helps in remembering your dreams.

This is a natural Prehnite Gemstone . Prehnite is very, very seldom cut because 99% of the crystals found are opaque in clarity and not clear enough to cut. Prehnite is a very elusive gem that is highly coveted by collectors world wide! This stone is incredible as it displays translucent clarity that is almost unheard of with this type of gem.
