Item Description
Fluorites come in virtually all colors of the rainbow, and are some of the few gems that occur in multicolor stones. I've seen this type of Fluorite from China, but never from Argentina. The stone comes from a trusted source so I have confidence that it's genuine. The stone shows beautiful purple and yellow banding throughout. It's a very attractive gem and is only very slightly included with a standard "Emerald" cut. The $100 starting bid puts the stone under $4 per carat which is well below retail on this stone.
