Item Description

Isolated, gemmy and glassy, yellow-green, fluorite cubes to 1.6 cm are aesthetically scattered on the CABINET ironstone plate on this very fine specimen from the historic mines at Weardale. Many of the cubes are interpenetrating twins. The crystal isolation and uncommon color are especially noteworthy on this classic old-timer from the Howard Belsky Collection. SUPERB fluorescence, as you would expect. Valued at $750.
