Item Description

An attractive group of gemmy purple cubic Fluorite crystals with beautiful internal "phantoms" are sitting on a stacked group of translucent/gemmy, colorless/white Calcite from the famous Yaoganxian Mine. This peice is in good condition on the front, but it's conctacted on the back where it was detached from the pocket wall. The largest Fluorite crystal measures 2.2 cm on edge, and the entire group glows with color when backlit. The faces of the Fluorite crystals are all shiny, smooth and well-formed. A small amount of brown Sphalerite can be seen here and there. It's very showy as you can see, I personally love the aesthetics on this piece as it features a solitary group of crystals centered on the top of the Calcite. Priced at $1,000 in the inventory
