Item Description

Gemmy, glassy, pretty light purple fluorite cubes to 2.3 cm are aesthetically set on matrix of intergrown calcite rhombs with a nifty secondary overgrowth of sugary, tan calcite. This is classic and very showy older combination material from the famous mines at Naica. Both fluorites are very nearly pristine with only miniscule, mostly out of sight edgewear. Ex Consie Prince Collection.
