Sharp, well-presented cluster of gemmy Fluorites from the Sounion series of mines in Lavrion. A watery, light blue-lavender tint gives these gemmy crystals a gentle beauty. The lustrous, textured surfaces play nicely against the clear interiors of these cubic crystals. There is even some purple accents that add visual character and interest. Classic, rich, purplish-blue fluorescence is a bonus. The largest Fluorite is 1.6 cm on edge, and they are distributed in a balanced, yet charismatic, manner around the perimeter of the matrix. Collected in 2018, this small-cabinet specimen is a welcome and aesthetic example of the Sounion Fluorites.
