Item Description

A gorgeous, 2.7 cm, fluorite cuboctahedron jauntily perched on quartz and sulfide matrix from the famous Nikolaevskiy Mine. The water-clear crystal has textbook crystal form and most of the crystal faces have a nifty, silky, pebbly, lightly etched look. This stunning fluorite, from the Ed David Collection, was priced at $750 in the gallery. It is just REALLY hard to find them this good. So if you do not have one of this style (say, if you have one of the clear cubes but not one of these), this is a great opportunity to get a stunning one!
