Item Description
A rare combo specimen from the famous Wushan Mine, which is arguably the best contemporary Spessartine Garnet locality over the last 20+ years. This piece hosts an attractive rich purple colored octahedral crystal of Fluorite measuring 1.2 cm associated with small rich orange-red trapezohedral crystals of Spessartine Garnet sitting on cream colored Microcline matrix. You don't see a lot of PURPLE Fluorites from this locality, they're most green, but the early finds produced this material, and they quickly disappeared from the market.
