Item Description

Classic, color-zoned, translucent, fluorite cubes are aesthetically peppered with amber calcite rhombs, some having very nifty scalenohedron phantoms on this very fine combination specimen from the famous Denton Mine. The lustrous, frosted, stepped-growth cubes grade from purple, to beautiful sky-blue, zones of variable purple, to golden amber cores. Classic colors. In great shape, the smaller cube has only a gently cleaved corner. Choice material from the Dick Heck Collection. Valued at $500. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
