DESCRIPTION
So here we have an exceptional specimen for Shangbao - when you look at most material from Shangbao you will see pastell colors with tones of light green and light lavender, sometimes violet. Blue is almost unique for Shangbao - and then look at the intensity of color and at the contrast with light, well shaped Dolomite crystals. All faces of the fluorite crystals are sharp terminated, highly lustrous and tehy all show glassy character. Undamaged. Ex Robert Brandstätter coll.
