Description

This specimen shows some deep orange fluorite from the historic mining area of Frohnau. The crystals show a very high luster and intensive color. As you can see, the faces are slightly stepped some crystals have a violet layer inside. I didn't do photos with backlight, but I can tell you, it looks very nice.
