Item Description

The Yaogangxian Mine is one of China"s great specimen producing locales and this is a striking and fine combination example. A pristine, 3.2 x 2.7 x 2.4 cm, glassy, translucent, pastel-green, stepped fluorite cube is dramatically impaled atop two diverging clusters of splendent, jet-black, ferberite blades. The preferential quartz crystal wreaths really add character to this piece. This aesthetic combo has numerous display possibilities. Very uncommon in this combination quality.
