A large flat matrix coated by silvery blades of Muscovite are in turn covered by glassy purple Fluorite cubes, elongated Arsenopyrite crystals, Siderite, and Quartz crystals. This is a large, aesthetic Yaogangxian piece loaded with crystals. The Fluorite are bright and transparent and well dispersed across the surface. I love the Arsenopyrite on this one - they are thin and elongated, the best is 1.7cm and double terminated. The Siderite form tan disc-shaped crystals and the Quartz crystals are transparent. A Yaogangxian classic!
