Fluorite (fluorescent) Richard Whitmore Coll.

Item Description

Four large stepped-growth fluorite octahedrons form an impressive large specimen from the famous Wise Mine. The translucent color-zoned octos, with frosted faces, have the classic variable Wise Mine green color. The large middle octo is 10.5 cm across. Periphery wear on the right side and lower left side is noted, but is certainly only a modest detraction to this sculptural large piece from this classic locale. Rich purple fluorescence. Ex Robert Whitmore Collection. 2242 grams or almost 5 pounds mass.
