Ex. Charlie Ruggles Collection

Outstanding quality group of glassy, intensely-colored purple cube-octohedral fluorite crystals from finds over 25 years ago at the famous Shangbao mine in central China. Absolutely perfect and highly-aesthetic all-around. Charlie Ruggles acquired this from Collector’s Edge around the year 2000. Classic!!
