Fluorite - Butree Pasture Mine, Cowshill, Weardale, Durham, England
Fund 1976
 
Water-clear fluorite twin with a perfect structure. The sharp-edged fluorites have an excellent lustre and show interesting surfaces
Unfortunately, the piece was not worked with enough sensitivity when it was recovered, so the piece is unfortunately not completely undamaged. Due to the particular clarity of the crystals, these quirks are hardly noticeable.
Wonderful historical specimen of an English classic at a very good price.
