Item Description
A striking and very fine color-zoned fluorite from Santa Eulalia. The glassy, essentially transparent cubes to 2.2 cm have lightly frosted faces. Most of the cubes have glorious purple color-zoned centers with colorless out zones, EXCEPT for cube on the left side. This oddity is half green and half purple on the diagonal! The field of calcite scalenohedrons on the right side is a super accent. The bit of periphery wear has very minimal impact to the high quality of this cutie. Interestingly, NO fluorescence. Classic, excellent and unusual San Antonio Mine fluorite.
