Item Description

An exceptionally aesthetic and sculptural combination small cabinet from this now famous remote deposit. Striking, superb, limpid, colorless, modified fluorite octahedrons, to 2.0 cm, are dramatically perched on the wormy quartz matrix highlighted by the 2.7 cm field of sharp, splendent, silvery arsenopyrite crystals. A couple of surreal sceptered quartz stalks, to 1.6 cm, are fantastic accessories to this artistic piece with mulitple display possibilities. Purple fluorescence. Valued by the former dealer at $1500. An uncommonly expert and architectural fluorite combination from the locale. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON! The extreme gemminess, glassiness and luster made photography difficult.
