Fluorite (M546)
This is an exceptional crystal from this old classic locality! The faces show an incredible texture, they are on satiny luster and - most important: the intense color is not a result of backlight; I never saw a crystal from there with this clarity and transparency! As a cherry on the cake - it shows modifications of ikositetrader at the corners, which is generally a very rare habit for fluorite. Developed as floater, healed at the back-side and in excellent condition.
