Item Description
A striking 4.7 cm wide tiara of beautiful, unique green, gem fluorite octahedrons is dramatically set atop the plate of glassy, translucent quartz points on this very sculptural and artistic combination from recent finds. The large octo in the tiara is 1.7 cm and is doubly terminated. All of the limpid fluorites are pristine on this impressive piece. Rich purple fluorite fluorescence, as you would expect. Choice and excellent material. These are now considered to be contemporary classics. Valued at $600-800.
