Item Description

A classsic, 2.5 cm, gemmy, lustrous, light golden-yellow fluorite cube with a crackly interior is very aesthetically set on the sculptural limestone matrix. During the 1960s and early 70s, this limestone quarry produced excellent fluorites, such as this fine example. The gentle bruise to one corner is certainly only a modest detraction. Purple fluorite. Ex Allen Dillwith Collection of Texas.
