The fluorites on this gorgeous plate are as sharp and as good as they usually get from the Okarusu - just SUPERB transparency, razor sharpness, and the top green-purple color. Okarusus can sometime be murky, but you can see the matrix right through these crystals! They measure to 1.3 cm on edge. What's more, there are pretty quartz crystal clusters interspersed amongst the fluorites. The specimen shows very little damage for such a large piece - two or three dinged corners, but you have to look for them, so they really don't detract on a piece of this magnitude. 19 x 12.5 cm
