Item Description
Prehnite from the Zhob District is very rare. Lustrous, translucent, pretty mint-green, nubby prehnite stalactites and botryoids form a sculptural and aesthetic specimen. The prehnites are beautifully complemented by the scattering of lustrous, glassy, water-clear quartz crystals. The striking large stalactite is about 4.5 cm long. A very showy, excellent and uncommon 360-degree specimen from the Herb Obodda dealer stock. Herb valued this fine rarity at $250, five or more years ago.
