Item Description
Gemmy, colorless, calcite scalenohedrons, some doubly terminated, richly cover both sides of this impressive two-sided fluorite rib from from the famous Denton Mine. Many of the larger rich purple fluorite cubes have classic amber or colorless cores. The much smaller, lighter purple fluorites on the back are a nifty accent. The calcites really glisten on this sculptural large combination piece. Ex Dick Heck Collection. Valued at $500.
