Description

Buy any two fluorite specimens from this auction and I will add a third British fluorite of similar size, and different locality, free of charge. 

A sizable specimen from a sought after locality. Reflective, pale lilac fluorite cubes of high transparency and up to 0.8cm on an edge liberally cover the entire display face. This specimen was hard to photograph and is much brighter than the images suggest making a good display. Sits nicely for display.
