Item Description
A classic combination piece of a style from the 1980s, and early exports from the region. This is immediately recognizable to those of us who have seen styles come and go over the years and remains one of our favorites. Nestled aesthetically in a shallow vug of white chalcedony, are glassy and gemmy, apple-green fluorapophyllite.crystals to 3.4 cm in length. An outstanding and dramatic specimen that really "pops" in a showcase! This is an old style, and different to my eyes from modern material. The contrast, and the specific mint coloration here, make it special. valued $3000-3500
