Item Description
An outstanding and very aesthetic fluorite specimen from recent finds at the noted Xianghuapu Mine. The limpid, very glassy, pretty green cubes have striking and intense, teal-blue phantoms, that surround the flat matrix fragments. The crowning cube is 2.9 x 2.6 x 2.4 cm and is complete all-around and very nearly pristine. One edge is modified by the octahedron and an adjacent contact has only the most trivial of bruising. Every turn of this beauty presents a striking new perspective of the phantoms and included matrix. Valued at $400-600. You don't see many around of this exceptional quality anymore! MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
