Item Description

Gemmy and lustrous, bi-colored sharp cuboctahedrons with lightly frosted faces are richly and dramatically clustered on the large, quartz-rich matrix covered with starkly contrasting oxides. The water-clear, very glassy crystal clusters, to an imposing 4.7 cm, are mostly a pretty light green accented with hints of purple. Faint purple fluorescence. This is striking, unusual fluorite from a NEW FIND at an obscure Fujian Province locale. The diversity of Chinese fluorite styles and colors continually amazes!
