Description
LARGE PAIR OF FLUORITE VASESStone Source: China
This gorgeous, matched pair of vases has each been fashioned from a single piece of fine Chinese Fluorite. Of inverted tulip form with flared lip and base, they glow with the lovely deep violet color characteristic of this mineral, artfully arranged so that the softly transitioning, translucent bands of purple and colorless fluorite snake up the sides, shading from deep green at the base and showing delicate transparency at the lip, each 14 5/8 inches (37 cm) high.
