Item Description
Glassy, translucent, colorless, nailhead calcite rhombs to 2.1 cm are aesthetically scattered on the sculptural plate of intergrown, translucent, pastel-green, fluorite octahedrons from the well-known mine. All of the calcites are pristine, as is the well-placed fluorite octo on the top. Excellent and highly desirable combination material from the famous Xianghualing Mine.
