Fluorite (2017 find)

Item Description

Attention Fluorite collectors! From a new find in early 2017, we acquired a small parcel of these exciting Fluorite specimens from a good friend in Pakistan who tells me that these attractive and interesting pieces are coming from Baluchistan, which is probably best known for it's beautiful fiery "Alpine-type" Brookite specimens. This is certainly not what one would expect from this area, but I have seen a few specimens in the hands of other Pakistani dealers, and they all say they're coming from Baluchistan. This attractive small cabinet display specimen hosts many sharp, lustrous, translucent and well-formed cubes that range in color from a gorgeous blue color in sunlight to more of a purple color in indoor lighting. The cubes have a beautiful very slightly "stepped" appearance in areas, and the largest crystal measures up to 2.2 cm on edge. Overall, the piece is in good condition, with only a few imperfections, and really looks better in person. You can see small sugary Calcites on the edge of the piece as well. We will have a few more of these to offer in the coming weeks and months, and you will see colors ranging from purples, to blues to pinks to colorless and even some smoky hues! If you're a Fluorite collector, don't miss out on this eye-catching colorful specimen from an obscure new locality!
