The fluorites on this aesthetic combination piece are colorless, except for a trace amount of green and yellow in the frontal left-hand crystal. The cubocts are complete-around and pristine. Choice, unusual and uncommon for the style fluorite combination material from the Charlie Key dealer stock. Purple fluorescence.
