Item Description

Very unusually bi-colored, penetration-twinned fluorite cubes with an amazing, 2.8 cm, flower bud-like, barite crystal attached to the back from recent, uncommon finds at Jorf El Melha, Morocco. The moderately lustrous, translucent, cubes, to 2.7 cm, are an unusual lime-green and have amber-yellow, color-zoned edges. Trivial edgewear to the fluorite cubes is a very modest detraction to this most striking, two-sided specimen! Ex Jesse Fisher and Joan Kureczka Collection.
