Item Description

A classic and exceptional, CABINET, combination specimen from Mexico. A striking and rich cluster of gemmy, light purple, color-zoned fluorite cubes to 2.0 cm is very aesthetically placed at the top of the large, spearpoint-shaped, tabular, celestine crystal with sawtooth edges. The sprinkling of gemmy, amber, probably calcite crystals on the fluorites is a very nice accent. The back is another specimen in itself, with the gemmy fluorite cubes on one edge. Complete all-around. The frontal display view is totally pristine. You cant see the celestine termination bruising from the front. Very uncommon in this excellent combination quality and probably dates to the 1970s or 80s. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON. Rare on the market today. Ex Stoudt collection and valued at $1250.
