You can display this fine fluorite specimen from either side, depending on whether you prefer the isolation of crystals (and the large crystal) on one side, or the more complete covering crystals on the other. The crystals are sharp, deep transparent purple/green, and the quartz crystals add an extra element that is uncommon in these specimens, making this really exceptional for Okarusu. The matrix here evidently protruded into a pocket, allowing fine crystals to form all the way around it! 8 x 7.5 x 4.5 cm
