Item Description
A classic Clay Center Fluorite specimen hosting a predominant, sharp, lustrous gemmy "phantom" cubic crystal exhibiting a classic golden color in the center and nearly colorless along the exterior. There are a few smaller Fluorites on the piece, but the main crystal is the focal point. The largest Fluorite crystal measures 1.6 cm on edge, and shows notable color zoning. A few bladed white crystals of Celestine make for a nice touch. This is also fluorescent, showing a yellow color in areas under UV light. The exteriors fluoresce a bit more than the centers. A few minor bruises keep it from being 100% pristine, but it's still good quality and has good balance.
