Item Description

Classic and sculptural large fluorite and calcite from this noted Asturias locale. Glassy to frosted, translucent calcite rhombs, to 3.0 cm are richly and dramatically clustered on both sides of the matrix covered with gemmy golden-yellow fluorite cubes. The piece displays well from both direction and is essentially pristine, with only a modest bit of periphery wear to the calcites. Excellent and classic large combination material from the Paul Zerfass Collection # 1789. Faint fluorescence on both species.
