Item Description
Classic and excellent Judith Lynn fluorite from the Ted Bartels Collection. A 2.4 cm octahedron dominates the crest of this rich and very showy miniature covered with smaller octos. The fluorites have rich grape-purple color, typical raised scalloped faces, moderate translucence and matte finish faces from being etched out of the enclosing quartz. The starkly contrasting green fluorite at the base is a fine compliment. Purple fluorescence. A fine example from the locale.
