Gem Smoky Quartz w/ Actinolite (rare) ex Obodda

Item Description

Gem smoky quartz crystals of this quality from the Shigar Valley are rare and highly valued commodity. This impressive piece compares with European Alpine smokies. The sharp, water-clear, gem-like, glass crystal has excellent smoky color and striking impressions, where other crystals once lay. These were actinolite crystals, as you can see actinolite crystal fragments embedded on the smoky faces and actinolite crystals included in the smoky. The attached, nearly colorless smaller crystals are just as gemmy and add pazzazz to the piece. A stunning, 360-degree crystal. It is technically doubly terminated, as the broken base is healed over. Essentially pristine. Outstanding Pakistan smoky quartz combination material. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. Valued at $1000-1500 rarity, quality and combination species.
