Fluorite viola crystals on a quartz matrix from Quanzhou, Fujian, China.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Excellent Fluorite specimen from Quanzhou, Fujian, China, completely natural and of high mineral value. The Fluorite crystals, with an intense purple color and a well-defined octahedral habit, stand out clearly on the matrix covered by a dense druse of small white‑gray Quartz crystals. These features add aesthetic and mineralogical value to the piece.

This is an ideal specimen for mineral collections, display, and for those who appreciate the natural beauty of minerals, also within crystal therapy and lithotherapy, according to the properties traditionally associated with the mineral species.

All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, with rare exceptions always indicated in the description. The photographs are taken with professional lighting to best enhance colors and details; however, slight variations in tone may occur depending on the device or ambient light.

Shipping is carried out via reliable and selected express couriers, with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 working days in Europe), tracked and insured shipping and professional and secure packaging, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries can also occur the day after payment depending on the destination.

It is possible to accumulate multiple purchases and receive them in a single shipment, even from auctions with different deadlines, simply contacting us to arrange the consolidation. For important pieces, direct delivery by appointment to your home or at major European fairs is also available.
