Item Description
China has been one of the most productive countries for new material over the last 15 years. The quantity and quality of the finds in China have been remarkable. A large percentage of the finest contemporary Fluorites on the market right now are coming out of China. This piece is a fantastic GEM QUALITY / WATER CLEAR small cabinet display specimen featuring dozens of very sharp, lustrous, stepped cubic crystals which change color from greenish to blue to lilac-purple depending upon the light under which they're viewed. If the overall quality and showiness wasn't enough, the piece is a complete "floater" as it's totally crystallized on the back with associated Pyrite and Calcite. It was difficult to photograph but it's gorgeous in person. If you collect Fluorites or Chinese minerals, don't miss out on this one. It's an exceptionally attractive piece that would make a fine addition to any collection. No damage that I can see with the naked eye, and the piece comes with a FREE custom base from The Sunnywood. Valued at $1800 in the inventory.
