Item Description

A highly unusual and showy combination from this famed locale. Cavernous, densely stepped-growth, lustrous and translucent, lavender fluorite octahedrons cover matrix, that is studded with bright, brassy pyritohedrons. We have not seen anything, quite like this from Huanzala. Very modest fluorescence. Ex Art Soregaroli Collection.
