Item Description
Fluorites come in virtually all colors of the rainbow, and are some of the few gems that occur in multicolor stones. I've seen this type of Fluorite from China, but never from Argentina. The stone comes from a trusted source, and I'm sure that it's genuine. The stone shows a beautiful mix of mint-green, purple, lilac, yellow, colorless and even "tea" color banding. It's a very attractive gem and is only slightly included with a standard "Emerald" cut. The $100 starting bid puts the stone just over $3 per carat which is well below retail on this stone.
