Comment: Lustrous and translucent, intergrown fluorite crystals, to 2.25 cm across, exhibit variegated light and dark lavender colors with really fun patterning. Sharp phantom lines are seen in many crystals. Crystals with lighter colored lavender phantoms are clearly evident. Very nice group with excellent lustre, that glows even better when strongly backlit!
