Item Description
A classic and aesthetic miniature Colorado combination from the famous Sunnyside Mine. This cutie features two well-placed, intergrown clusters of uncommon cubic fluorite crystals. The glassy, translucent cubes are a very light green and have frosted, very densely stepped-growth faces. The sculptural field of flattened, pastel-pink, rhodochrosite rhombs and sparkly quartz points make for a very fine and desirable combination from this noted locale. BRIGHT blue-white fluorite fluorescence. Ex Herb Obodda Fluorite Collection, which sold in the mid-1990s apart from his main, worldwide collection. He later bought part of it back and kept it in his main collection, as well. Value??
