Item Description

Absolutely limpid and beautiful, light mint-green, fluorite cubes make up a striking, curved, CABINET specimen from recent finds in China. The largest cube is 3.0 cm. All of the cubes have very nifty, frosted, beveled edges. Rotating the piece and looking into the crystals is surreal. Essentially pristine, with only very trivial peiphery wear. The base and back have been sawed to enhance the display appeal and this piece shows well without aid. This is contemporary classic material of excellent quality. Ex Zukowski Collection. Once common, specimens of this quality are becoming harder to find. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
