Item Description

Stunning stepped-growth faces on this fantastic cluster of bi-colored fluorite cuboctahedrons from the famous Shangbao Mine. Rich grape purple surrounds the colorless interiors of these striking gemmy and lustrous crystals. The cube faces are water-clear to silky and are dramatically accented by the surreal, broad stepped-growth faces, that may be partially etched. The few contacts appear to be healed. An outstanding fluorite miniature from this noted locale. It has multiple fine display views and this is a classic style of Shangbao fluorite.
