Item Description
A large lustrous and translucent, sky blue fluorite crystal, 10 cm across is partially covered by a lustrous and gemmy, multi zoned, light purple fluorite, 10.5 cm across. This is a large and fascinating, yet very dramatic combination of colors and gemminess all in juxtaposition. It must be strongly noted that although this really is quite beautiful, one face of the blue fluorite crystal has been cleaved off and there is edge wear as well, limiting the valuation.
