This piece is said to have come out in the 1920s-1930s, and is one of the finer examples of the style and locale. It features a huge end-crystal perched on a stalk of smaller, more gemmy and bright, crystals that are all a rich purple color and highly attractive. It is nearly pristine! This was one of the famous fluorites of the Asselborn English collection which I purchased 2 years ago with the intent to keep for awhile, but have decided to sell.
