Description
A gorgeous, saturated green color makes these sharp fluorites from a single large pocket of summer of 2020, such amazing collectible pieces. The white calcite drapery upon the fluorite enhances the visual contrast to the eye. They are a really special, vibrant color that is a bit different than what we saw in previous finds; and this was one of the few COVID-era discoveries at the locality (luckily, although Rob could not go to China himself when they came out, his nephew there was able to run up to Hunan and get videos and strike a big deal for over 100 pieces of the newly found pocket while it was still on miners' beds!). This is a gorgeous piece. It really looks good simply sitting flat, with the height in the middle, but it works better for photography at an angle as shown (and can go on a base, either way). Note the sharp green phantoms within.
