Item Description

A superb, aesthetic and pristine large plate of translucent, purple and green fluorite octohedrons to 3.5 cm on quartz from the famed De'an Mine of China. Bright green fluorite is underneath the etched, banded, needle quartz layer. Common 5-7 years ago, supplies have dried up and disappeared, with very little new material coming out. This is a most excellent example, that glows when backlit. Value today???
