This is a rare complete pocket from the old Bagdad locality with an amazing "scene" inside: tiny crystals of quartz have completely replaced the former aragonite crystals, but retaining the aragonite form, which you can clearly see in the spiky crystals. These pseudomorphs rise from a bed of quartz over a layer of massive green chrysocolla.
