Item Description

An unusual, sculptural and excellent cluster of fluorite octahedrons from this famous mine. The translucent octos, with frosted faces, have the classic Wise Mine green color. The impresssive large crestal octo is 3.7 cm. The unusual, off-white, color-zoned, edge phantoms add real character to this shapely piece from the Bob Trimingham Collection. Acquired by Bob in Tucson in 1996, when the last big find of these were coming out. Rich purple fluorescence.
