Item Description

An excellent CABINET combination specimen from the famous Yaogangxian Mine China. A gorgeous and striking, glassy, 5.3 cm wide cluster of interpenetrating water-clear fluorite cubes has super purple color zoning and is aesthetically set on a 3-dimensional matrix of pearlescent, tan, bladed, muscovite rosettes. A bit of edgewear is noted on the large cube, but is only a modest detraction until looking closely. Contemporary classic material from this well-known locale. Pretty purple fluorescence. Ex Zukowski Collection. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
