Description

A perfect floater! The modified fluorite crystals consists of numerous sharp steps and shows a very intense blue to purple internal color. The contrast to the sharp, snowy white feldspat crystal could not be better, the assemble is highly aesthetic. As nice addition you can see a sharp terminated, glossy and end-pointed schorl crystal between fluorite and feldspat. Looks great all around, undanaged.
