AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Splendid vase carved in fluorite representing Foo Dogs in fairly good condition with some chips and cracks. Fluorite is a true rainbow gem; it is considered the most colorful mineral in the world and symbolizes practical intelligence, the shaping of the mind. Due to its fragility, this stone remains rare in the jewelry world.
The bottle is not part of the sale.
Very imposing in size at 27 cm and weighing over 7 kg (my scale doesn’t go beyond that weight ;) )
As this wonder is very heavy, I have opted for Smart Delivery to help reduce your shipping costs.
Happy bidding to all.
As with all my items auctioned on this site, this beauty has undergone no cleaning (just dusting) nor modification since purchase.
Look carefully at the photos which are part of the description. Any damage not mentioned in the text but visible in the photos is considered described.
No shipping outside the EU. If you are outside the European Union you can bid on one of my lots however no claim will be possible in case of problems during transport. In light of the new import/export regulations to the USA, there will be no shipping to this country.
Careful professional shipment with signature and insurance.
