Prehnite bead bracelet 10 mm faceted

Prehnite is mineralogically a calcium aluminum silicate (Ca₂Al(AlSi₃O₁₀)(OH)₂), with a Mohs hardness of 6–6.5 and an orthorhombic crystal system. The stone owes its vibrant green color to its iron content; it often displays a slight translucency that gives it a special, soft luster. Baron von Prehn discovered it in the 18th century at the Cape of Good Hope – Prehnite was one of the first minerals to be named after a person. Among the Aboriginal people of Australia, it is considered the "stone of eternal youth." The faceted cut of the large 10 mm beads enhances its natural luminosity and makes this bracelet a true statement piece. Locations: Australia, South Africa, China, Scotland, USA.

Significance in crystal healing

Prehnite is considered a stone of eternal youth, renewal, and foresight. It is said to promote vitality and regeneration, strengthen intuition, open the heart chakra, and help in letting go of old burdens. It is believed to be associated with the heart chakra and the third eye. These attributions are based on traditional lore and are not scientifically proven. They do not replace medical treatment.
