Item Description

Striking, glassy, translucent, colorless, nailhead calcite crystals to 3.8 cm dramatically and richly encrust three sides of an elongated mound of glassy green fluorite cubes. Overall, the piece is in fine shape, with the contacting on the base and one end only being a very modest detraction. Excellent and highly desirable combination material from the famous Xianghualing Mine. Ex Zukowski Collection. SUPER fluorescence on both!
