{"product_id":"fluorite-with-quartz-27","title":"FLUORITE   with QUARTZ","description":"This classic, characteristically German Fluorite is from the Marienschacht mine in the W'lsendorf Fluorite Mining District of Bavaria, and is of dark blackberry purple, dappled with a delicate plum-pink patina and small druses of golden-orange micro-Quartz crystals.  The intergrown cubic crystals range between 0.5 and 3 cm on edge, but average around 1.5 to 2 cm.  All crystals are opaque and are so dark as to appear almost black.  The faces are smooth yet display square geometric growth patterns with a lustre somewhere between glassy and waxy.  Where the faces adopt the lighter patina, their lustre tends more towards matt.  This is actually a shallow surface alteration to the Fluorite's structure, so interrupting its colour to produce these lighter hues.  This delightful German Fluorite is ex. the Dr Joseph Clemente (1899-1987) Collection of southern Germany.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57781139964239,"sku":"CC21259","price":1295.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/3748\/2063\/files\/CC21259_31107fb1-38f7-4454-b3b0-4e5d5f51a5bc.jpg?v=1783979080","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.co.uk\/products\/fluorite-with-quartz-27","provider":"Crystal Classics UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
