A classic style of fluorite from China: This is from the August 2019 discovery, the largest and most important fluorite find in recent years in China. Crystals to 2 cm. These glow when lit just right, in hues of pink. A very fine and completely pristine, all-around sculpture-like cluster of choice pink fluorite octahedra to 2 cm. Inclusions within are minute hairlike crystals of byssolite. Laszlo Kupi photo.
