Item Description

A really nifty and cute fluorite octahedron from the fluorite mines of Luna County and the Larry Krause dealer stock. With textbook form, this lustrous crystal has intense, stepped-growth faces giving them a surreal etched look and beautiful colors, a green core surrounded by pretty light purple. Complete all-around and pristine. There is a contacted hollow on the back, but with no damage, per se. An exceptionally fine fluorite thumber from this locale and very uncommon in this quality.
