About this specimen
Two plates travel together here, and side by side they read as two moods of one pocket. On the left, violet fluorite cubes push up through a biscuit-coloured crust of tiny crystals, the deepest almost inky where colour zones overlap along an edge. On the right the same cubes arrive pale — grey-lavender, glassier, stacked in shallow steps — over a chalky white seam flecked with rust-orange.
Yaogangxian in Hunan is one of the classic Chinese sources for fluorite of this character: sharp cubes, purple that shifts with the angle of the light, and a habit of building in layered steps. CaF2 is soft for a display mineral at Mohs 4, with perfect octahedral cleavage, so lift each plate by its matrix. Some Yaogangxian material fluoresces under ultraviolet light; the species is unpredictable that way, so treat any glow as a bonus rather than a promise.
The set weighs 20 g in total, each piece listed at approximately 5.1 cm. Both sit on putty on one clear acrylic cube in the images, which were taken of the two specimens you will receive.
