Fluorite

Size: 12 x 9 x 4 cm

Location: Elmwood Mine - Smith Co. - Tennessee - USA

incl. in-house made custom base

This specimen from the Elmwood mine is a prime example of the quiet stars among the showcases - fine, clear and full of little surprises. The fluorite cubes in a delicate, pale violet impress with their extraordinary transparency and calm presence. What makes this specimen special, however, is a delicate line of small, glittering crystals that runs across the piece - almost like a natural signature of the mine itself. This fine structure creates an attractive dynamic on the otherwise calm basic shape.
