China keeps producing great quality, crystallized display specimens and has provided collectors with more fine quality minerals than virtually any other country in recent memory. Here we have a very attractive crystal group of light lilac color cuboctahedra with medium luster and relatively sharp faces. The center of the largest crystal shows some dark purple cubic phantoms. The piece is associated with minor white Dolomite rhombs for a nice touch.
