Item Description
A wonderful, old-time, rich, two-sided rib of gem grass-green interpenetrating fluorite cubes from the famous Heights Mine. The limpid glassy cubes reach 1.8 cm. The bit of scattered bruising to the cubes is noted, but is certainly only a modest detraction to this classic and highly desirable Weardale fluorite. Typically, for Heights fluorites, the green cubes turn purple (natural fluorescence) in nearly all lighting conditions. SUPER fluorescence. Fairly valued at $1200-1500. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
