Item Description
These incredibly clear," green ice" fluorite cubes from the Xianghualing ore field have proven nearly impossible to photograph, due largely to their clarity. You cannot see that they actually have a pretty, light bright green color. In person, their faces are like clear windows into the perfectly transparent interiors. These are truly world-class fluorites, and it is telling that some dealers are stashing them away till their value is better realized. The cubes are up to 2.0 cm and they are in good shape. The modest periphery wear is certainly not a detraction. Ex Zukowski Collection.
