These superb octahedral fluorites on quartz were THE big find of last year. If you did not get one, this is a FINE specimen, and good-sized too. The crystals are super-sharp, combining purple and green tones (which the prettiest do), and are well-balanced on the contrasting matrix, They measure to about 1.7 cm on edge. We shot a couple of backlit pics that really show these off. 12 x 6.8 x 3.1 cm
