Item Description
An outstanding faden quartz from this less well-known Pakistan locale and the Paul Otto Collection. A striking and adorable pair of stacked, water-clear, tabular, doubly terminated quartz crystals with chisel terminations have very well-defined fadens or "strings" running down the crystals. The fadens are beautifully set on the back of the quartz crystal plate and form a dramatic and aesthetic specimen. The fadens are pristine and you barely notice a bit of bruising on the right side ofthe plate. Even the back looks great on this exceptional example.
