Item Description

An attractive upright cluster of very glassy, intergrown, pretty pastel-blue, fluorite cuboctahedrons nicely accented with quartz and calcite crystals from this famous Chinese locale. The upper face and a side face are water-clear, with the rest having intense stepped-growth. Showy and excellent combination material from the Cynthia Payne Collection. Purple and pink fluorescence. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
