Item Description

The striking vug and other faces are lined with gemmy, interpenetrating, emerald-green, fluorite cubes on this impressive large specimen from recent finds at the famous Rodgerley Mine. The cubes reach 1.3 cm and the galena cubes on the roof of the vug are a classic accessory. The sculptural vug is in super shape. The scattered periphery wear and contacting are certainly acceptable. A dramatic, large, highly representative example of the species and noted locale. Rich fluorescence, as you would expect. 5.5 pounds or 2.5 kilos.
