Fluorite - zoned
Yaogangxian Mine, Yizhang County, Chenzhou Pref.
Hunan Province, China
9 x 8.1 x 5.7 CM (cabinet)
price: $1250
Post Tucson 2015
Outstanding deep grape purple color in large gem-clear phantom crystals. The contrasting greenish Muscovite matrix presents the Fluorites as very three dimensional. The crystals reach over 4.4 CM which is very large for this type, but they still have fine color. In exceptional, undamaged condition, this is a strong, eye-catching display piece. Nothing of this quality has come from Yaogangxian for a few years, these are now considered modern classics and make a fine esthetic addition to any good Fluorite or Chinese suite.
