Item Description

Deeply colored and richly translucent, this well formed fluorite octahedron exhibits a pleasing light emerald green color. As an added bonus the crystal is also mostly terminated even on the bottom, showing just some minor contact where it came off a matrix. An excellent representative specimen of a single classic octohedron from this locality, from finds of around 2010. From the Keith Williams Collection of miniatures and small cabinet specimens - Keith was a well known dealer and collector for decades before retiring recently.
