About this specimen

An upright plate carries dozens of small cubes whose colour runs from clear water to pale champagne, with a handful holding a faint smoky-grey core. They are stacked face to face and roughly in parallel, so the front of the specimen breaks the light into a great many little squares at once rather than flashing from one big face. Behind them the matrix is pale and crumbly, with a rust-coloured streak down the right edge.

Cube-on-cube stacking of this sort records a stop-start growth history: every pause leaves a face, every restart nucleates a fresh cube on top of the last, and the paler ghosts visible inside some of the crystals mark those boundaries. Fluorite is Mohs 4 and cleaves cleanly on octahedral planes — a blessing for lapidaries, a nuisance for collectors, since a short drop is all it takes to lose a corner.

The plate stands 4.8 cm tall on a 2.5 × 2.5 cm footprint and weighs 45 g. It is puttied to a clear acrylic block, included. Every image on this listing shows one plate, and that plate is the one that ships.
