About this specimen

Violet fluorite cubes push up through a sparkling white quartz crust across the face of this plate, some fully exposed and glassy, others half-swallowed by the druse that grew over them. Along the upper right edge a run of straw-yellow calcite catches light at a different angle from everything else, and the deeper hollows keep a grey-green cast where the coating lies thickest.

Three species, three acts: the fluorite crystallised first, quartz sheeted over it afterwards, and the calcite arrived last on the open edge. That sequence is legible in the specimen itself, which is what makes a combination piece worth more than the sum of its minerals. Hardness runs in the same order — calcite 3, fluorite 4, quartz 7 — so the softest species is also the most exposed. Keep tweezers, tags and neighbouring specimens away from those yellow crystals.

The plate is shown on the small clear acrylic block, secured with a pad of white putty, and reads best face-on with all three minerals lit at once. You are buying the plate in the frame, not one like it.
