A starkly perched, SHARP, forest-green octahedral fluorite is placed aesthetically on a small pedestal of smaller green fluorite coated with colorless quartz druse. This dominating, upright crystal is lustrous and gemmy, with a rich emerald green color, and measures a full to 4.7 cm on edge and about 6 cm in height. When backlit, the crystal literally glows - more intensely than most others here due to a slightly darker color, that is about the most intense this deposit has produced. There is a very slight, shallow but detracting ding on the tip which reduces the price, but otherwise the front face and display terminations are complete and it looks like it should be far more pricy. When backlit the crystal literally glows. Amazing and appealing! This piece is outstanding in its impact, more so in person. Despite the (very small) ding atop, I love this piece for the size and price range. Comes with a custom lucite base for display.
