Item Description

This is one of the most classic and well known localities in the world for Fluorite. Nearly every shade of Fluorite known (from colorless to black) is found at Okorusu, and the quality of the crystals only adds to their allure. This beautiful small cabinet display specimen features a group of good quality, sharp, gemmy bi-icolor cubic crystals up to 1.3 cm which grade from completely colorless on the edges to a rich purple hue in the center. No matrix, and when backlit, the crystals are GORGEOUS. This is a nice display specimen, and one of the more attractive pieces for overall appeal, quality and visual impact that I have offered in the auctions recently.
