Item Description

Muzquiz fluorites have a very distinctive look, unlike nearly any other locality. This very showy and classic specimen has near transparent, ice-like, purple cubes with characteristically pronounced stepped-growth faces and very pretty, darker color-zoning at the crystal edges. This piece looks great from either side, although one side has periphery wear. The base has been sawed to enhance the display quality. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
