2051237
location:
Giglio Island, Grosseto, Tuscany, Italy
description:
Very pale pink partly gemmy octahedral crystals of fluorite to 3.5 cm in size over the top of a crystallized quartz and pyrite matrix. Minimal chipping, mainly confined to the pyrite, this will display nicely on its own and measures 10.5 x 7.5 x 4.5 cm in size. I think in very unusual locality example for the species, neat history with a previous label from the collection of noted American collector Lazard Cahn. Shipping weight: 1.24 pounds.
