Item Description
A classic color-zoned fluorite cube is beautifully accented with lustrous, ivory-colored barite blades on this excellent and aesthetic combination specimen from the famous Minerva # 1 Mine. The striking large cube has rich golden amber interior with classic purple edges. A bit of edgewear is noted, but is certainly a modest detraction to this very fine piece. This striking piece has several dramatic display possibilities. Ex Schlichter Collection. Valued at $350-400.
