Item Description
Excellent quality large Fluorite with Celestine from Muzquiz. Striking, sharp, lustrous, beautiful purple, gemmy fluorite cubes are dramatically stacked and rest on white/colorless Fluorite on minor matrix. A seam of glassy, colorless Celestine blades partially bisects the piece, adding character. The celestines are lightly bruised and one spot of bruising to the fluorites is noted. The purple cubes are gemmy, which is significant for the material. Showy large combination material from the well-known locale from the Ruben Avila Collection (a dealer and collector based out of Mexico City).
