Item Description
A sculptural small cabinet of sharp fluorite octahedrons from the recent, very highly touted finds at Riemvasmaak, South Africa. The gemmy and lustrous, unique grass-green fluorite octahedrons are aesthetically placed along this elongated piece and dominated by the fabulous, large octo at 3.2 cm x 3.0 x 2.5 cm. This is a very fine and pristine, two-sided specimen. The color is INTENSE, deep green, very nice and has bright purple fluorescence! It comes with a custom-made and engraved lucite base value at $125, for free. These are contemporary classics. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!! SOMEDAY, we will look back on these the way we do now for Illinois fluorites of 10-20 years ago even, and wonder why they were so darned cheap, mark my words. Valued at $600-800.
