Item Description
An aesthetic and excellent fluorite specimen from the recent, very highly touted finds at Riemvasmaak, South Africa. Gemmy and lustrous, unique grass-green fluorite octahedrons to 3.8 cm are nicely clustered. The large octo is doubly terminated. The contacting at the base and just one bruised corner are very modest detraction to this showy piece. These are contemporary classics and this piece displays well from several angles, as you can see. The color is INTENSE, deep green, very nice!
