Item Description

An attractive display specimen of Fluorite specimen hosting a sharp, very gemmy, attractive green color, modified cubic / dodecahedral crystal with smooth faces. The piece is in fairly good shape overall from the display side (contacted in the back), and simply looks better than the photos. The cube faces of the crystals have excellent luster as well. The best part of the specimen is that when we put it under UV light, a beautiful light purple internal cubic "phantom" appeared, that is virtually invisible in normal lighting!
