Item Description

Beautiful, gemmy and lustrous light emerald-green Fluorite cuboctahedrons, to 1.0 cm, are densely intergrown on this expressive and colorful small cabinet combination from a new find in Peru. Tiny, sparkly, brassy Pyritohedrons are richly scattered about, as are a few tiny doubly terminated Quartz crystals, to 3 mm. A 3.0 cm vug is lined with matte-luster, charcoal-gray Sphalerite crystals, to about 7 mm. Adding even more character, one side is richly, preferentially coated with drusy colorless fluorite. AND, the highly sculptural piece is partially hollow. Purple LW UV fluorescence. High visual impact with lots of color, sparkle and uniqueness.
