Item Description

A 2.2 x 1.6 cm, glassy and lustrous, pretty pastel-blue, fluorite cube is expertly perched on complimentary bladed barite matrix and smaller fluorites on this showy and excellent combination specimen from the famous La Cabana Mine at Berbes. The lustrous cube faces are water-clear to lightly frosted. The large cube has corner wear, but this piece remains a highly representative combination example from this noted locale. Ex Bob Borofsky Collection, owner of the well-known William Wise Fluorite Mine in New Hampshire. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
