Item Description
A classic Southern Illinois fluorite form - the cleavage octahedron. Miners would chip these out of high-grade massive fluorite as gifts or to pass the time. This glorious, gem, lustrous, polished piece has gorgeous electric powder-blue color. Common in the 1950 and 60s, you don't see many around anymore in this fine quality. Purple fluorescence. Ex Larry Krause dealer stock. BETTER IN PERSON!!
