About this specimen

A row of transparent fluorite cubes with deep purple rims runs down the centre of a dark green-black mica matrix, with a pale cream band across the base. The fluorite reads as clear glass with purple frames.

It measures 6.1 × 4.7 × 2.1 cm (2.40 × 1.85 × 0.83 in) and weighs 74 g (2.6 oz), a small cabinet-sized piece that displays well on a shelf or in a cabinet. Sold as photographed, with any known repair, mount, treatment or condition note disclosed in this listing; colour is as true to hand as the photos allow.
