This is an extremely unusual and beautiful Okarusu fluorite, of good size, with BRIGHT GREEN color (a more intense green that even the photos show) and splendid glowing transparency. Under a decent light (such as the lighting in your average case) it glows like art glass! Hints of purple here and there show its Okarusu origins. The crystals have beautiful edge and corner modifications, to boot. Specimen is sawn flat on the back as are many Okarusu pieces, in removal from the pockets. That does not show from the display. It really is quite impressive 10.8 x 8.1 x 2.6 cm
