Item Description

Water-clear, gem, teal-blue fluorite cubes to 2.4 cm have nifty darker teal-blue interior phantoms and purple edge phantoms on this most impressive, large two-side rib from this famous mine. Scattered barite blades are a stark contrast. These are gorgeous crystals. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only one modest area of periphery wear on the upper left of the primary display side. The piece displays great without aid. A fine and dramatic large combination with rich purple fluorescence. Ex Art Soregaroli Collection. Valued at $1500-2000 for size and quality.
