Item Description
Impressive, dramatically sculptural and rich large fluorite from a NEW FIND at an obscure Fujian Province locale. Striking, bi-colored, sharp, gemmy and lustrous, stepped-growth cuboctahedrons with satin luster faces are richly clustered on the large elongated sculptural boxwork matrix. The water-clear, very glassy crystals, to 2.5 cm, are mostly a pretty light green accented with hints of purple. I like the way the crystals are concentrated on the front and on one end of the piece. Faint purple fluorescence. This is striking, unusual fluorite from this new find. The diversity of Chinese fluorite styles and colors continually amazes!
