Item Description

A beautiful plate of frosty lavender octahedra of fluorite with gemmy centers, associated with light tan scalenohedrons of calcite. This is OLDER material from Naica, as you can tell by the style. The faces are intricate with stepped micro-faces. The attached molded plastic base is a bonus because its stuck on well and good. The color and sparkle is AMAZING and highest quality, for this mine and style. This one is a lot more beautiful in person! Valued $950-1250
