Item Description
These look like green ice cubes! Absolutely limpid and beautiful, mint-green, fluorite cubes make up an aesthetic miniature from recent finds in China. The cubes reach 2.0 cm. All of the cubes have very nifty, frosted, lightly beveled edges and stunning, water-clear faces. Rotating the piece and looking into the crystals to the underlying matrix is surreal! Contacting on a top crystal has no damage, per se and the bit of periphery wear on the right side is certainly a modest detraction to this very showy piece. This is contemporary classic material of very good quality. Super purple fluorescence! Comes with a custom-made lucite base valued at $145, for free. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
