Fluorite (classic material) (ex Bob Whitmore Collection)

Item Description

The William Wise Mine, in Westmoreland, New Hampshire produced some of the most iconic Fluorite crystals from any New England locality. The larger sized crystals with their excellent gemminess and classic green color are iconic in the mineral world. Since the crystals were often transparent (and sometimes broken), they were excellent candidates for faceting. This "Emerald" cut stone has a gorgeous seafoam-green color and excellent eye clean clarity. If you collect Fluorite, New England material or if you just like stones with a beautiful color, do not pass this one up. It would make for a great center stone for a piece of jewelry or if you have a crystallized specimen from this locality, you can pair them up to make a fantastic rough and cut set.
