Item Description
Pretty light mint-green, glassy, fluorite octahedrons to about 1.0 cm richly line a 4.0 cm vug jauntily perched atop granular quartz matrix on this showy and excellent specimen from a less well-known Swiss locale - Gibelbach. Seldom on the US market, as most such specimens remain with collectors or in Europe. Bright purple fluorescence.
