Description

This is a thin plate of golden fluorite cubes covered almost entirely with sharp, brilliantly-lustrous quartz crystals. Many of the quartz crystals are doubly terminated, and under bright lights, some show glints of rainbow-colours. The fluorite fluoresces yellow under UV light. In excellent condition. These quartz crystals are so bright, and the fluorite adds colour underneath – this is a classy piece!
