Item Description
Golden Fluorites from India have been admired for years, and their spherical shape has always been fairly unique for the species. This specimen goes one step further in that the Fluorite is in more of a fan-like, hemispherical shape - and very large, at that! The dark goldenrod Fluorite is an impressive 5.5 cm across, and the matte luster actually suits it very well. It grew on a bed of light Amethyst and Quartz crystals in an agate vug. Distinctive and attractive.
