Item Description

Absolutely water-clear, glassy, colorless, fluorite cubes to 2.3 cm form a rich and striking specimen from the less well-known Emilio Mine of Asturias, Spain. The beautiful cubes are very lightly frosted or have stepped-growth faces, which add to the character of the piece. The major crystals are all pristine. Minor periphery wear is noted, but this remains a very fine example of the species and locale. Several excellent display views, as you can see. Some of the cubes have rainbow effects with good light! Ex Fernandez Buelga Collection of Asturias. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
