Item Description

Intensely stepped-face fluorite crystals are uniquely characteristic to the deposits from the Muzquiz area of Mexico. The stepped-growth faces really shimmer on these highly lustrous, translucent, shocking grape-purple cubes with darker edge phantoms and colorless cores. The backlit photo highlights the rich color saturation. One spot of periphery wear and trivial interior bruising are noted on this riveting piece. This showy and colorful piece has multiple display possibilities.
