Item Description

A supremely water-clear, glassy, "invisible" fluorite cube on matrix from the Nikoleavskiy Mine. This crystal is so limpid, and the internal crazing really adds character to this fine specimen. A few flattened calcite rhombs are a nice accent. Amazingly, the crystal is pristine, which you very, very seldom see. Classic material from the 1990s and hard to get in this quality today. Ex Larry Krause Collection.
