Item Description
Superb miniature of two Fluorite octahedra on a Fluorite/Quartz matrix. A quality octahedron from Erongo is relatively rare, and these two are exceptional, even with contacting along the back and base. The Fluorites have green cores and purple edging, silky luster with gemmy corners (reminiscent of Elmwood), and perfect form. The largest Fluorite is 2 cm on edge. Knockout aesthetics - you really could not have designed this any better for the size/balance.
