A classic Elmwood mine miniature. In fact, I probably didn't even need to state where it is from - it is so distinctive! A 2.5 cm wide deep purple cube of Fluorite displaying the classic Elmwood 'crazed' surface is perched upon an aggregate of glossy black Sphalerite crystals. The Fluorite crystal is complete on its upper display surface but is missing part of its rear, including two corners. However, this has the effect of allowing more light to pass through it, producing an internal bright purple core with darker edges when backlit. A very pretty miniature Elmwood Fluorite. Ex Arvid Pasto collection.
