Item Description
Muzquiz fluorites have incredible stepped-growth faces found nowhere else and this is an striking and excellent example. The aesthetically intergrown cubes are nearly water-clear and have lightly frosted faces. The color is a very pretty light purple. A few tiny, clustered calcite crystals and a preferential dusting of strontianite are nice accents. Close examination of the stepped-faces look just like a M.C. Escher print! The cubes are all pristine, with the periphery wear on one end certainly being a very modest detraction. An outstanding fluorite from Muzquiz from the Larry Krause dealer stock.
