Item Description

This is a classic and aesthetic Clay Center specimen with the fluorite cube exhibiting a rich cognac color and outstanding luster and gemminess. This piece is from the major finds a few years ago. Interestingly, the cube is not as color-zoned, as many such fluorites are from this find. It has fine display quality from multiple angles, as the near pristine cube is perched on the celestine blade. Scattered very trivial edge wear is noted to the cube. The attachment contact is at the end of the celestine blade. A very fine example for the size. This is also highly fluorescent a ghostly white color under UV light.
