This extraordinary specimen from the famous Elmwood mine combines delicate color nuances with a strong crystal structure in a fascinating way. The fluorite cubes are large, harmoniously formed and present a beautiful play of colors: soft pale pink, framed by darker, violet edges. These color transitions appear natural and soft - like a watercolor of nature, captured in geometric perfection.

 

Fluorite cubes - masterpieces of nature

The fluorite cubes in this piece are of impressive quality: sharp-edged, clearly defined and of an appealing size. Their surfaces show an exciting mixture of finely structured areas and smooth, highly transparent tips. These variations create a lively interplay of light and shadow. Depending on the viewing angle, new details are revealed: soft reflections, matt textures or shiny surfaces that catch the light.

 

Play of colors - between delicacy and depth

The coloring is particularly fascinating: the pale pink center appears almost ethereally light, while the darker violet edges give the cubes depth and presence. This zonal distribution of color within a crystal is a characteristic quality feature and highly sought after by collectors. The full splendor of the colors unfolds in good light, especially when light streams gently through the transparent areas.

 

Presentation at the highest level

The custom-made base made of clear acrylic glass supports the piece securely and elegantly. The engraving of the place of discovery - “Elmwood Mine, Tennessee, USA” - is discreetly incorporated and emphasizes the exclusive character of the piece without distracting from the mineral.

 

Elmwood Mine - source of breathtaking fluorite creations

The Elmwood Mine is famous worldwide for its extraordinary fluorite finds. Among other things, pieces with this bright color palette are particularly sought after, as most Elmwood specimens occur in strong purple. Pale pink fluorites with distinct color zones are therefore among the most sought-after varieties among collectors and museums.

 

For collectors with an eye for subtlety and expression

This piece is a tribute to the more subtle beauty of the mineral world - delicate but powerful in radiance and presence. It is ideal for a tasteful collection in which both color and form play a role. Especially in a well-lit display case, this fluorite piece will reveal all its poetry and attract attention.

Notes on the mineral

  • This product is a natural product and should be handled with care.
  • Due to its delicate structure, there is a risk of damage through improper handling.
  • Keep out of the reach of children. 
  • Fluorite is very sensitive to light and should therefore be protected from sunlight so that it does not lose its color.

Notes on the base

  • If the base is dusty or dirty, you can clean it with water and a soft cloth (e.g. made of viscose).
  • Please avoid using paper towels as these can cause fine scratches. 
  • Special cleaning agents are generally not required.
