The MOST UNUSUAL fluorite thumbnail from the Argentiere Glacier of Chamonix, France from the small lot we obtained. Nearly transparent, rose-pink octohedral fluorite crystals, modified by the cube, have PURPLE corners! This is the ONLY piece from the lot with the modified cubic faces and purple overtones. This is CLASSIC and very desirable material from a sought-after locality. 1.7 x 1.7 x 1.1 cm
