Item Description
A beautiful group of colorless/white rhombic Calcites aesthetically sitting atop a notably prismatic "finger"-like group of Prehnite with associated Quartz from the lesser known locality at Zhob. The piece comes to us from the PERSONAL COLLECTION (not dealer stock) of Herb Obodda. A very aesthetic and worthwhile piece of this now hard to find material. The entire Calcite group measures 3.7 cm at its longest dimension. Very little damage and SO showy. You just don't see such eye-catching pieces of this material from Pakistan like this.
