Item Description
Absolutely limpid and beautiful, light mint-green, fluorite cubes make up an impressive, large mounded plate from recent finds in China. The cubes reach 3.3 cm. All of the cubes have very nifty, frosted, beveled edges and stunning, water-clear faces. Rotating the piece and looking into the crystals to the underlying matrix is surreal! One lightly cleaved corner and a bit of periphery wear are noted, but are minimal detractions to this very showy piece. The base has been sawed to enhance the display quality. This is contemporary classic material of good quality. Purple fluorescence. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
