Item Description
Wow! This is certainly one of the most exotic and aesthetic Pakistan combinations we have seen! A rare doubly terminated, glassy, translucent, flesh-pink fluorapatite crystal is sceptered! A striking "belt" of two, coated, sea-green, fluorite cuboctahedrons, with dramatically placed terminated schorls and schorl sections and the blocky albite crystal "cloak" on one side really gives this fantastic and rare piece a lot of pizzazz. The schorl "cap" is super! Complete all-around. The apatites and fluorites are pristine. Rich yellow and bright sea-green fluorescence. An utterly fascinating and unusual, 360-degree combination from an uncommon Pakistan locale and the Herb Obodda dealer stock. Value of such a fine rarity should be $1000-1500
