Description

This is a stunning and classic example of Mexican fluorite. The stepped cubic crystals display an incredibly deep purple coloration in the outer layers, which contrasts beautifully with the lighter zones beneath when viewed with backlighting. The internal patterns and zoning become especially vivid under light, revealing the crystal’s full complexity and visual appeal. Both photos were taken with moderate backlighting to highlight these features.
