Item Description

A sculptural combination from this famous Chinese mine. A ribbon of glassy nailhead calcite rhombs is aesthetically set atop the mounded matrix of intergrown glassy, sea-green fluorite cubes. An earlier generation of sparkly microcrytalline calcite totally and preferentially covers the back side of fluorite, adding interest. Both species fluoresce. Showy and excellent combination material from the Art Soregaroli Collection.
