The absolute highlight of this specimen is an impressive, large fluorite cube that impresses with its perfect shape and remarkable transparency. This cube attracts everyone's attention as it is almost flawless and has intensive zoning that makes the different growth phases of the mineral visible. These zonings create a fascinating interplay of colors, which is intensified by the appropriate lighting.
The cube has very little sphalerite in the background, which makes it possible to almost completely backlight the fluorite and thus bring out the impressive transparency and deep color zones. This creates a wonderful play of light that makes the fluorite appear almost like a luminous work of art. At the lower end, a smaller fluorite cube nestles up against the large crystal, forming a harmonious ensemble that rounds off the aesthetics of the entire piece.
