A large fluorite crystal measuring 2.3 cm across is perched high between smaller intergrown fluorite crystals. Good luster and translucence and a rich lavender color is augmented by colorless areas and opaque lavender cores which are oriented 45 degrees to the plane of crystal growth. SHARP phantoms, better in preson. There are a few very minor dings on some crystal edges. The photos here are with only moderate lighting. In strong backlighting, these crystals "pop" out at you.
