Item Description
A showy and excellent LARGE CABINET fluorite plate from the limited 2006 finds in Henan Province, China. Intergrown, sharp fluorite cubes in strange, intergrown knobs with an upturned end comprise this unusual, sculptural piece. The translucent fluorites are brown to yellow, when front-lit, but glow golden-amber when back-lit! The noted periphery wear and one spot of bruising are only a modest detraction. Modest yellow fluorescence.
