SOLD
A superb, 4.8 cm, translucent, sea-green, rounded fluorite octahedron aesthetically perched on quartz matrix from the Ed David Collection. The internal refractions within the fluorite are beautiful and there is even a touch of rose quartz (close-up) to the left of the fluorite. This outstanding cabinet piece is from the less well-known Kavalerovo Mining District, near Dal'negorsk, Russia. This is a much rarer locale for specimens than the nearby Dal'negorsk mines.
