Item Description

Gem, color-zoned fluorite cubes cover all three sides of this impressive, large, 3-dimensional specimen from the famous Okorusu Mine. The limpid cubes, to 1.9 cm, have teal-green interiors with striking and beautiful teal-blue edge phantoms. The interior of both sides of this dramatic piece are essentially pristine and the noted periphery wear is certainly only a modest detraction. Purple fluorescence. Ex Helen & Raul Madrid Collection. Valued at $1000-1250. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON! The camera could not capture the true colors of the gem crystals.
