Item Description

Excellent cluster of three sharp Fluorites, all cubes modified by the octahedron. The luster is silky, and the form is sharp with the back of the cluster flat (but not cleaved). The largest crystal is 2.2 cm across. This is vintage Erongo, with at least five color-zones within the crystals. A cousin of the famous alien Fluorites, this is a fine large thumbnail. It is sharp and aesthetic.
