Fluorite octahedrons from Naica have never been common compared to the cubic habit, and less so in green color. The octahedrons reach 3 cm across on a side and are slightly frosted, lustrous, translucent and generally colorless in the outer layers. However, they have a rich green color center that emanates from the bottom of the specimen. Compelling, and unique overall! the piece is complete all around.
