A superb cabinet plate of translucent, green fluorite octahedrons. The large octahedron is 6.5 cm and you can see where the crystal was fractured in the pocket and then filled with quartz. These fluorites came out in modest numbers for only a short time, and have essentially disappeared form the market. The specimen is pristine, except for periphery wear.
