Item Description

Sparkly, brassy pyrite microcrystals are peppered on the striking dense intergrown cluster of stepped-growth fluorite cubes from this less well-known mine at famous Naica. The very glassy, gem, water-clear cubes are colorless with layer of mint-green fluorite noted at the base of the piece. Choice and uncommon combination material from the Cynthia Payne Collection valued at $695 by the former dealer. Moderate fluorescence. BETTER IN PERSON.
