Description

The crystal is etched and needs minor back-light - it is not perfect with the etched faces and some internal refractions, but fluorite from Romania is such an exceptional rarity, that this piece is really of high relevance! Alos the contrast to matrix is sweet and the assemble is very tri-dimensional.
