The lustrous, transparent cubes to 1.5 cm have beautiful violet to purple zoning and are very richly and aesthetically clustered on the matrix plate. Displays beautifully from several orientations. Pristine, except for very modest periphery wear. Collected circa 1974, according to the label. Outstanding older and uncommon material for this classic and desirable fluorite locale. Valued $750.
