Item Description

Superb pair of the deepest, most brilliant green Fluorites that I have ever seen from Erongo. The pair are each about 1.5 cm, and the luster is excellent. But it is that vivid green that just captivates the eye. Try as I might, I could only get one of the photos to do the color justice. And like the smaller, paler Fluorites on the specimen, there is a hint of purple on some of the faces. Try to imagine a large pair of incredibly gemmy Dioptases, and you will have a better image of this pair. Incredible aesthetics for what it is.
