Item Description
A sculptural and dramatic large intergrown cluster of mint-green fluorite cuboctahedrons from Pasto Bueno, famed for world-class rhodochrosite specimens and excellent fluorites. Striking, dense stepped-growth faces with satin luster cover the pretty gemmy crystals, to 4.0 cm. The clear cube faces are a super accent. Specimens of this color, size and quality are seldom seen from here. Rich purple fluorescence. A very fine large fluorite from the Allen Dillwith Collection of Texas.
