Item Description
Highly modified, cuboctahedral fluorite crystals with glowing, translucent, mint-green color and incredibly, dense, stepped-growth faces richly clustered on sparkly quartz crystals form a beautiful and striking, two-sided, CABINET rib. Essentially pristine on the front, with only trivial rubbing. Periphery wear is noted to some of the fluorites on the back. This is an excellent example of a fluorite and quartz combination from the Xiefang MIne, Jiangxi Province. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON! Purple fluorescence.
