Fluorite (GEMMY crystals)

Item Description

This is a wonderful, impressive, hefty, showy, aesthetic cabinet specimen from Ruyuan featuring dozens of beautiful green color, sharp, well-formed, VERY gemmy crystals of Fluorite measuring up to 2.0 cm, sitting in minor matrix. The crystals show a combination of cubic and dodecahedral faces, and the vast majority of them are completely undamaged, though there are a few cleaved crystals that I can see. when I look closely. The piece is expertly trimmed / prepped, so it's in great condition all over, and really display wonderfully as you can see from the video. Pieces of this size and quality were found years ago, and are seldom available on the market now, especially with such gemmy crystals. Keep in mind that this specific style is rare from Ruyuan, as the more commonly seen habit is the larger (often frosted) octahedral crystals, so this piece is features better formed crystals than most you'll see from the locality, with superior transparency. Valued $5,000.
