Item Description

A very fine locality fluorite and galena combination from the much more obscure Hill-Ledford Mine. The beautiful violet color and subtle color-zoning is visible in the translucent, 4.0 cm x 4.0 x 3.9 cm cube with lustrous, intensely stepped-growth faces. The partially etched cube is very aesthetically set on the galena matrix and the display view has only one corner with trivial bruising. Ex Charelle and James Webb Collection.
