Item Description

Lustrous, transparent to translucent, frosted, extra-rich grape-purple to beautiful apple-green, fluorite cuboctahedrons accented with and resting on starkly contrasting yellow muscovite crystals, in sharp hexagonal blades. A bit of feldspar is a nice addtional accent. This very fine, nearly 360 degree combo specimen has many display possibilities. From the noted Erongo specialty collection of Heini Soltau. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
