Fluorite with phantoms

Item Description

Here is a bizarre and distinctly patterned Fluorite from Okorusu with intense raspberry-purple phantoms enclosed within amber-yellow Fluorite crystals to just over an inch in size. Oddly, there are at least two generations of Fluorite here that are readily apparent by their distinctly colored zones, an early phantom of rich purple Fluorite that is interrupted internally by a narrow, pale gray-green zone that are oriented 90 degrees with respect to the surrounding yellow Fluorite that highlights the corners. The contrasts of color and symmetry between the zones are striking. The luster is very good and so is the transparency! A special color palette from a small pocket we think came out around 2010, this is almost never seen for sale today. Valued $2500-3500.
