Item Description

A classic, 3.1 cm, translucent, purple, fluorite cube with intense purple, color-zoned edges and scintillating, intense, stepped-growth faces from the famous and now-closed Elmwood Mine. The cube rests on rubyjack sphalerite. The fluorite is nearly pristine, with only trivial corner wear in one spot. Beautiful combination material from this famous locale. Ex Consie Prince Collection.
