Item Description

This is a classic and aesthetic Clay Center specimen with the fluorite cube exhibiting a rich cognac color in the interior with near colorless edge phantoms and outstanding luster and gemminess. This piece is from the major finds a few years ago. It has fine display quality from multiple angles. The contacting on the base and back are barely noticeable. For added flavor the sprays of lustrous and colorless celestine blades dramatize the fluorite. An excellent example for the size. This is also highly fluorescent a ghostly white color under UV light.
