Item Description
An outstanding and very aesthetic fluorite and galena combination from the famous mines of Weardale. The beautiful purple, interpenetrating cubes are all gem, with supreme luster and glassiness. Crowning this very sculptural piece is a fabulous doubly penetrating cube. The scattered, matte-finish galena crystals are a classic and excellent accent. Periphery wear is noted on the left end, but the rest of this striking piece is pristine. Classic, old-time combination material form the Art Soregaroli Collection. BRILLIANT blue-white fluorescece. Fairly valued at $1250-1500.
