Item Description
There is such a wide array of Fluorites from the various mines in China. Virtually every color of the rainbow is represented in these Fluorites, and you'll often find them in good sized display specimen. This piece is a classic example of the famous pieces from the classic De'an Mine. It features a group of very sharp, well-formed, octahedral crystals of a gentle green hue highlighted by purple edges. The largest crystal measures 2.8 cm on edge. When backlit, you can see the crystals pass light and have a lovely internal "misty" quality. No matrix, and when you flip the piece over, you can see that it's partially recrystallized. It's almost a complete "floater", but there are few areas of separation around the periphery, so it's not 100% complete, but it's still in great condition. Don't miss out on these, as they are rarely available on the market now, despite how many were found years ago.
