Item Description

A dramatic and uncommon large combination plate from Daye County. A striking 5.0 cm bright brassy compound pyritohedron "ball" is aesthetically set on the edge of the large two-sided layered fluorite plate. Both sides consist of silky lustre, frosted translucent light lavender rounded cuboctahedrons. The fluorite is white in the center of the plate. A modest bit of bruising to the fluorite on both sides is certainly only a modest detraction. Purple fluorescence. Impressive, rare and colorful large combination pyrite on fluorite from Daye County, possibly from the Fengjiashan Mine.
