Item Description
A beautiful, 2.6 cm, very glassy, gemmy/translucent, bi-colored, fluorapatite crystal is the focal point of this excellent, sculptural combination from this classic locale. The lustrous, tan, opposing, siderite rhombs are nicely accented with quartz crystals and small pearlescent muscovites. Both fluorapatites are pristine and the bit of bruising and periphery wear are certainly modest detractions to this fine combo, which has multiple displays possibilities. Yellow fluorescence.
