Purple QR Fluorite with Barite | Qinglong Mine, Guizhou, China
Purple QR Fluorite with Barite | Qinglong Mine, Guizhou, China
Description
This specimen features sharply formed cubic purple fluorite from the Qinglong Mine, a classic locality known for highly patterned fluorite. The cubes show rich violet to lavender tones with distinctive internal zoning. Pale barite is present as an associated mineral along the edges and matrix.
Fluorite is traditionally associated with clarity and focus. In cubic cluster form, it is believed to radiate and organize energy outward, supporting structured and intentional spaces. Purple fluorite is often linked to insight and discernment, while barite is associated with grounding and stability, giving the piece a balanced, anchored presence.

Note
All crystals and ceramic works offered by Atelier Lithic are inherently unique. Variations in size, colour, surface texture, and form are natural and should be expected.
Crystals are natural materials formed in the earth and may include surface irregularities such as natural fissures, internal veils, growth marks, contact points from where the crystal was attached to the host rock, or areas where the specimen was mined or extracted. These features are part of the crystal’s natural formation and are not considered defects. Defects are disclosed within the item description.
For crystals:
- When a listing includes numbered options (for example, 001, 002, etc.), each number corresponds to a specific crystal shown in the photos. Selecting a number means you will receive that exact crystal.
- When a crystal is shown as a group or range and sold as a quantity of one without numbered options, the images represent examples of what is available. You will receive one crystal, selected from the group, with natural variation.
For ceramics:
- All ceramic pieces are one of a kind. Unless otherwise stated, you will receive the exact piece shown in the listing photos.
