Item Description

Large, intergrown, drusy quartz-coated, purple fluorite cubes form and impressive and aesthetic LARGE CABINET specimen from recent work at the Rogerley Mine of England. The drusy quartz really sparkles on the large fluorite cubes, which reach 5.0 cm on edge. Some muted scattered periphery wear is noted, but is a minor detraction. The back has been sawed to enhance the display quality. A large, very showy, highly unusual example of combination from this mine. Valued $900-1200
