A rare and highly sought‑after pink fluorite from the legendary Göschener Valley (Göscheneralp), Uri, Switzerland — one of the most iconic alpine fluorite localities in the world. This piece was hand‑mined at high altitude, where collectors and alpine climbers work directly in the fissures of the granite, extracting crystals by hand due to the extreme terrain and inaccessibility.

The fluorite shows the classic soft pink alpine hue, with natural translucency and crisp geometric faces that glow beautifully under light. Alpine pink fluorite is known for its ethereal color, tight crystal structure, and the unmistakable alpine “freshness” that collectors prize. The specimen’s surface shows natural growth texture and subtle zoning, giving it depth and authenticity.

This is a true alpine classic — a rare opportunity to own a piece from one of the most exclusive fluorite‑producing regions on the planet.
