Description

The probably most wanted, most appreciated combination of minerals from entire Alps. The light smoky quartz crystals shows sharp termination, their color is light brown and they are all water-clear. The octahedral habit of fluorites is much more sharp as you can see on my photos. The assemble nearly looks like a bridge, much more tridimensional and better in person!
