Description

Fluorite
Shangrao
Jiangxi
China

This incredible Fluorite specimen features hundreds of well-formed octahedral crystals. The large plate-like example exhibits two generations and represents "older" material from Shangrao, China. The main crystal formation is the incredible, rich green crystals across the entire plate, creating a very showy offering with a spattering of second generation, clear Fluorite crystals on the righthand side. The green crystals are translucent and have intergrown in all directions. This fine example is out of a well-known Changsha dealers' own collection - that of Peng Ying. This material has not been seen in years on the market making this current offering a unique acquisition opportunity.
Measurements: 10.04 x 9.25 x 2.76 inches (25.50 x 23.50 x 7.00 cm)

Provenance: Ex. Peng Ying Collection
