Description:Discrete, water-clear, color-zoned, fluorite cubes to 1.7 cm are very aesthetically scattered on the thin matrix plate covered with sparkly, drusy quartz on this very fine specimen from the famous La Cabana Mine at Berbes. The lightly frosted, colorless, fluorites have nifty beveled edges and very pretty purple color-zoning. Pristine older material from the collection of well-known French dealer and fluorite collector, Alain Martaud. Collected circa 1980, according to his label.
