Item Description
A showy and excellent fluorite specimen from the famous Yaogangxian Mine of China. Two, water-clear, lustrous, lightly etched, sea foam-green fluorite cubes with nifty, interior, purple phantoms, are aesthetically stacked on top of each other like stairsteps. The cubes rest upon a matrix of quartz and bladed ferberite. The overall quality of this fine piece is minimally impacted by the internal crazing on the frontal face of the lower crystal caused by a small edge ding.
