Purple. Gold. Blue. Glass.

This Annabel Lee Mine fluorite is exactly the kind of specimen that reminds collectors why Illinois fluorite sits in a league of its own. Razor-sharp stepped cubic zoning creates an almost stained-glass effect, with electric violet edges framing a glowing golden-honey core that seems to light up from within.

The color separation is absolutely unreal. Every cube reveals layer after layer of geometric growth, producing that legendary Illinois “blurple” contrast collectors chase for years. Add the exceptional transparency, crisp architecture, and incredible luster, and the result is a specimen that commands attention from across the room.

Mounted perfectly on a custom Sunnywood base, the presentation elevates an already elite specimen into a true display centerpiece. The kind of piece that doesn’t just fill a spot in a collection—it becomes one of the reasons people stop and stare.

A serious collector-grade fluorite with undeniable cabinet presence and old-school Southern Illinois magic.
