Description

A lot of different varieties of fluorite was found in the Ice Cleft of Weisseck Mountain. What is special about this locality is that within a few centimeters the shape and color of the fluorite can change completely. Also, it happens very often that small bags contain only two or three beautiful pieces of one variety of fluorite.

This piece is just lovely! The fluorite shows a highly glossy surface with a light square texture. The outer layer is clear but within you can see several violet zonings along the edges. The backside is also crystalized with a bright purple fluorite. All photos with daylight as backlit. An undamaged floater-piece of brilliant aesthetics and quality!
