Item Description

Very glassy, transparent to translucent, green to colorless, interpenetrating fluorite cubes to 2.7 cm (at the crest) are aesthetically stacked on this scuptural, two-sided rib from recent finds at the famous Rogerely Mine. Overall, the piece is in great shape, with just a few gently bruised edges and corners. Nearly pristine, for such crystal density. The cubes glow with rich purple fluorescence under any light! Excellent and very show material.
