Item Description
A striking, very unusually etched, large fluorite cube on on rubyjack sphalerite crystals from the famous Elmwood Mine. One face of the lustrous, translucent, stepped-growth, rich grape-purple cube is intensively and dramatically etched with a cavernous look. Complete all-around, with only a trivial bit of mostly on the base, periphery wear. Very fine, older combination material from the Consie Prince Collection. 3.3 pounds or 1.5 kilos.
