Item Description

A very impressive large two-sided mounded specimen of interpenetrating purple fluorite cubes from this classic Weardale locale. Nearly all of the lustrous, translucent cubes have frosted faces, except a small cluster of beautifully gemmy cubes on one side. Pretty colors in the cube interiors range from lavender to shades of purple. Exceptionally pristine, amazing for such a large and densely covered piece. The modest periphery wear has no impact on the quality of this piece. Super fluorescence, as you would expect. Valued at $1250-1500 and worth it.
