Fluorite octahedrons - large cluster

Item Description

An stunning, sculptural, CABINET fluorite plate from the recent, very highly touted finds at Riemvasmaak, South Africa. Gemmy and lustrous, unique grass-green fluorite octahedrons are aesthetically clustered on this super piece. The striking, jagged, sidecar "mountain" is 7.5 cm wide and the large, flat-lying, octohedron is 10.0 cm. This dramatic specimen is essentially pristine, with only trivial periphery wear. Very fairly valued at $2000, for dramatic quality and size. Mark my words, these are contemporary classics. The color is INTENSE, deep green, very impressive on this piece! Because it is thin, having grown as crystals expanding along a narrow cavity, it is exceptionally easy to backlight and the full color shows evenly and easily in any lighting.
