Here we have a superb old-time English Quartz and Fluorite specimen from Weardale. This piece features dozens of sharp, white, lustrous, "stubby" Quartz crystals coating very good sized, gemmy, purplish cubic Fluorite crystals. The Quartz crystals seem to have a higher concentration along the edges of the Fluorites and are thinner on the actual Fluorite faces. These pieces are English classics, and seldom seen in such high quality display specimens on the market today. Ex. Richard Kosnar Collection.
