Item Description
Beautiful, translucent green fluorite octahedrons with nifty purple edge phantoms are aesthetically clustered on etched needle quartz on this very fine and showy example from this noted locale. The octos reach 1.6 cm tall and the fluorites have frosted faces.The underlying matrix is lustrous, translucent, massive, sea-green fluorite. The octos in the interior are pristine, with the few bruised octos on the periphery being only a modest detraction. Bright fluorescence. Classic Chinese fluorite.
