These are probably the GLASSIEST fluorites ever to come from China! They give great Dalnegorsk pieces a run for their money, for sure; at a fraction of the price! The only trouble is capturing them in a pic; you just can't believe how clear these crystals are! The crystals (large ones, to 2.8 cm on edge) are wrapped completely around a thin shard of matrix. There is one cleaved crystal that gets lost in the shuffle anyhow (Priced at half because of it, but most folks wouldn't even notice), and one minor ding; overall, the specimen is in fine shape. 15 x 7.5 x 4.6 cm
