Aesthetically perched on a matrix of spherical, ivory-colored calcite, are two spinel twins of lustrous and translucent, pastel-green fluorite to 4 cm in length. The spinel twins are sharp and freestanding, very dramatic. In person they have a faint green color to them. The calcite fluoresces dark tan and the fluorite a rich purple. A very fine combo specimen!
