Item Description

An impressive, sharp and pristine 4.3 x 3.8 cm gemmy fluorite cuboctahedron crowns a sculptural intergrown cluster of similar crystals from this now famous locale. The colorless crystals are mostly water-clear and have striking preferential glass-clear and satin lustre faces. A bit of matrix is a nice accessory to this striking, architectural 360-degree specimen. Complete all-around and essentially pristine. Stepped-growth, contacting or etching on some some crystal faces adds much character.
