Item Description
Limpid and beautiful, pastel-green, fluorite cubes make up a striking, mounded, LARGE CABINET specimen from recent finds at the famous Xianghualing Mine of China. The large cube is 4.4 cm. The piece masses over 1900 grams, nearly 2 kilos! All of the cubes have stepped faces and very nifty, lightly frosted/etched, beveled edges. Rotating the piece and looking into the crystals is surreal. Essentially pristine, the very minor periphery wear is not noticeable to any extent. The large piece displays well from several views, as you can see. This is contemporary classic material of excellent quality way beyond the normal "wholesale material ". Valued at $750. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
