Color-zoned Fluorite (fluorescent)

Item Description

A showy and excellent small cabinet specimen of intergrown, translucent, "Blanchard-blue", fluorite cubes beautifully accented with pretty color-zoned purple edges. The photos highlight the translucency and color saturations, including the purple edges. The crystal faces are lightly frosted. The matrix is massive colorless fluorite with a bit of galena. The prominent, 1.3 x 1.2 cm cube is pristine. Periphery wear is noted, but in the overall context, is a modest detraction. Contemporary classic material. Rich purple fluorescence.
