Item Description

Emilio Mine has been producing exemplary fluorite specimens since the 1980's, varying from colorless to deep purple with a range of unusual crystallography and often associated with baryte, quartz, and calcite. This specimen is covered in water-clear, glittering tabular fluorites in between blades of pristine white baryte. Really hard to convey how lustrous this piece is in photos! There is one edge that has a minor chip, otherwise the fluorites here are in excellent condition damage-wise. It's a beautiful, glassy piece from this internationally known mine. It stands on it's own easily against colorless fluorites from other famous localities like Dalnegorsk. Comes with a custom base, for free. It is gorgeous on a shelf. From the collection of Alex Venzke.
