Fluorite

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 so I have confidence that it's genuine. It features gorgeous "ribbons" of imperial purple color against blue-green background. It's a very attractive gem with a "Rectangle Cabochon" cut. The starting bid puts the stone just over $5 per carat which is below wholesale on this stone. Valued at $276.60 retail.
