Item Description

A sculptural translucent fluorite cube with rich purple color and frosted faces. This crystal has significant color-zoning in the interior. Some faces have stepped-growth and some are smooth, with all having nifty darker edge phantoms. The cube is a darker purple, than the photos show. The crystal GLOWS violet, when backlit. Complete all-around, this crystal is heavily etched. Interestingly, no fluorescence. From a 2012 find. Nice form with multiple display views. The back is very interesting.
