Specifications
Description
**Title:** Fluorite on Quartz - Flawless Violet Phantom Cube with Unique Zoning **Locality:** Quzhou, Zhejiang Province, China **Dimensions:** 7.1 x 5.8 x 3.2 cm **Weight:** Not available **Description:** A premium and highly aesthetic **violet phantom fluorite on quartz** from Quzhou, Zhejiang Province, China, distinguished by a beautifully formed, glassy cubic fluorite crystal set prominently on a sparkling white quartz matrix. The focal point is a superb fluorite cube with excellent crystal geometry, presenting sharp, crisp edges and a clean, well-balanced cubic form. The crystal appears notably pristine, with a smooth glassy luster and no obvious distracting damage visible from the provided views. Its formation is especially desirable: a nearly ideal cube, perched elegantly above the matrix and positioned for strong display from multiple angles. The color zoning is the defining visual feature. Within the transparent to translucent fluorite body is a striking internal **violet phantom**, arranged in a distinctive geometric pattern that appears to float within the crystal. The zoning shows saturated purple to deep violet concentrations, with softer lavender and nearly colorless areas toward the outer portions of the cube. This contrast creates a refined, almost architectural internal landscape, giving the crystal exceptional depth and individuality. The zoning is not merely colorful; it is visually organized, unusual, and highly attractive. The fluorite is hosted on a bright, snow-white quartz matrix composed of fine sparkling crystals, which provides an elegant natural pedestal. The clean quartz base enhances the fluorite’s transparency and makes the violet phantom stand out dramatically. Additional pale to colorless fluorite or quartz-associated crystal growths appear around the main crystal, adding dimensionality without distracting from the central cube. This is a fine collector-quality specimen, notable for its **flawless cubic crystal formation, glassy luster, full transparency, vivid violet phantom zoning, and excellent contrast against the white quartz matrix**. A refined and display-worthy Quzhou fluorite with the visual sophistication and condition expected of a premium cabinet specimen.
