(OLD MATERIAL) PURPLE FLUORITE FLOATER on quartz - Height: 10 cm - Width: 8.7 cm- 418 g - (1)

A perfect floater from the early 2000's coming out of the lower part of La Cabaña, where most of all significant finds were made, this piece in particular features a tightly intergrown group of purple fluorite crystals with the typical "qr" texture that can sometimes be found in Berbes, over a plate of matrix that is fully coated by micro quartz crystals. The composition of this piece, though, is the main factor that makes it stand out easily from others, with a shape similar to a bouquet of flowers, with a few larger cubes acting as the flower heads.
