I have been snatching up all the fine Elmwood pieces I can find on the market as the supply quickly dwindles. These fluorites measure to about 2.5 cm across, in a pretty cluster atop a matrix of euhedral sphalerite crystals (sphalerite, with its heavy zinc content, was the real reason for the existence of the Elmwood). They are nearly pristine, with just a few dings to corners on the righmost crystal at the edge 10 x 8.5 x 7.5 cm
