A JEWEL-LIKE, pristine, lavender, cuboctohedral fluorite crystal on bed of sphalerite from the recent find at the Gibralter Mine at Naica. Most of the lustrous faces on this beauty are lightly frosted, which makes the crystal translucent. BUT, a couple of side faces are gem-clear, which give a television-like view in to the crystal interior. A really neat effect. CLASSIC and very fine Naica material.
