Item Description
An excellent, aesthetic and scuptural large specimen of isolated to clustered, translucent, purple and green fluorite octohedrons to 3.0 cm on quartz from the famed De'an Mine of China. 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 pristine example has fine form and glows when backlit. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON. Value today???
