Large Fluorite on Quartz (classic locale)

Item Description

Uncommon, translucent, lightly frosted, teal-blue, fluorite cubes to 9 mm cover this impressive, layered, LARGE CABINET plate from the famous Blanchard Mine of New Mexico. The teal-blue cubes are a lighter color than the classic, darker "Blanchard blue" cubes you normally see from Blanchard. The cubes have slightly darker, teal-blue edges and rest on quartz. The photos highlight the translucency and color saturations. Difficult to photograph due to the lighter color, luster and translucence. Some periphery wear is noted, but is mostly concentrated in one area. Highly representative and showy large material from this noted locale. Note that these should not be exposed to sunlight, or they fade (though room light is OK). Contemporary classic material. 3.5 pounds or 1.6 kilos. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
