Item Description
An excellent, aesthetic and pristine large plate of translucent, purple and green fluorite octohedrons to 3.0 cm on quartz from the famed De'an Mine of China. The cubes rest on etched, banded, needle quartz. Some of the best and largest crystals are found on two sides of the plate. 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???
