A large, old classic from this ancient fluorite mining district, here we have a complexly colored specimen from the Obodda collection. Herb Obodda had, until the mid-1990s, one of the finest and most comprehensive fluorite collections ever assembled. Such large examples are rare, today. Weighs 1760 grams.
