Item Description

These look like green ice cubes! Absolutely limpid and beautiful, mint-green, fluorite cubes make up an aesthetic small cabinet plate from recent finds in China. The cubes reach 2.2 cm. The cubes have stunning, water-clear faces, with most of the edges being razor sharp.. Rotating the piece and looking into the crystals to the underlying matrix is surreal! In excellent shape overall, the periphery wear on the back edge is certainly a modest detraction. This is contemporary classic material of very good quality. Super purple fluorescence!
