Okarusu fluorites are notoriously hard to capture in photos, but this is a really good one, with transparent crystals to 1.7 cm that show the classic green and purple. That rusty color you see is actually deep inside the crystals, iron oxide mineralization that is showing through the transparent crystals. Very sharp, lustrous and undamaged. 8.8 x 5.5 x 3.5 cm
