Item Description

Intergrown cluster of sharp lustrous and gemmy pale lavender Fluorite cubes, that are super gemmy and transparent! The almost clear stacked cubes have thin faint purple phantoms both as an inner zone and also as the final outer zone. The central large cube is 4.3 x 4.5 x 4.1 cm. Several nicks are noted along the crystal edges of the display face. The very large translucent cube with defined zonation makes for a worthy addition to any collection from this classic locale. It has a strong purple fluorescence. Ex. Kurt Hefendehl. Please note - this looks like it came from the miner, and has never been to a lab for cleaning. It still has pocket clay in the crevasses, so it is literally "natural as found" for a gem spanish fluorite.
