Item Description

Translucent, bi-colored, green with pretty violet edge phantoms octahedrons with frosted faces are sculpturally festooned on the large curved matrix of needle quartz on this aesthetic plate from this well-known locale. The octos reach 1.3 cm. Strikingly, the fluorite on the back is glassy grass-green. Purple fluorescence. A fine and highly representative example of the style and locale.
