A single, small miniature-size off-matrix glassy Fluorite cube from the famous Erongo Mountain in Erongo Region, Namibia. Renowned not only for exceptional Aquamarine and Schorl crystals, Erongo Mountain has also furnished collections with magnificently complex and vibrant Fluorite crystals. This crystal is full of fascination and commands a lot of attention. Presenting the classic Erongo green colour with deep purple outer zones, the interior of this crystal is transparent and is like looking into another world. Right at its centre are wispy, cloud-like inclusions, some random but others providing the clear outline of a cubic phantom crystal. Two of the top corners of the cube are missing, chipped off, but this is still an excellent display of the quality Fluorite Erongo has produced. Ex Arvid Pasto Collection.
