Item Description

A odd Fluorite specimen from a fairly broad locality in South Africa. The Fluorites appear to be nearly black, but actually have a deep interal purple color. Additionally the piece has a cool habit as the crystals are nearly spherical in shape, but are essentially highly modified cubes. The largest Fluorite measures 1.3 cm across. As I said, the locality is not terribly specific, I'm simply copying the information from the Crystal Cellar label.
