Intensely purple, highly lustrous, translucent fluorite cubes to 2.6 cm with beautiful, shimmering, stepped-growth faces form an excellent specimen from Musquiz, Mexico. The cubes also have nice color zoning. The bit of calcite hidden in a crevice and on the matrix is a nice accent and adds a bit of amber to the backlit photo. This is nearly pristine, excellent material from this locale. Ex. Consie Prince Collection.
