Item Description

Fluorite, quartz and muscovite combination specimens of this aesthetic and exceptional quality are few and far between from the recent finds in the Erongos. The fabulous, bi-colored, 6 mm, fluorite cube with the green "eye" is guarded by a 1.8 cm, preferentially coated, quartz crystal. Perched on the other end of the pearlescent, green, bladed, muscovite plate is a striking cluster of fluorite cubes to 1.1 cm beautifully accented by a 2.2 cm, angled and coated quartz crystal. Complete all-around. The aesthetics on this miniature, with the isolated crystals in association, is outstanding. Valued at $300-400 and worth it. Charlie Key dealer stock.
