Item Description
Dramatic, large plate composed of three generations of Fluorite. The first generation creates the base: light blue and seemingly massive. This is followed by large (3 cm) crystals of euhedral light-purple Fluorite. These are overgrown by the final generation of light blue, lustrous octahedrons up to nearly 4 cm! on edge. The fine drusy faces create a beautiful sparkly look. Very minor edgewear in just a few places that does not affect the terrific aesthetics at all. Very nearly pristine. Valued $1500
