Description

A beautiful single light green fluorapatite crystal with sharp, lustrous, glassy faces. The crystal is doubly-terminated, and the bottom termination is complex, reflecting what seems to be some etching. With magnification, an intricate pattern is visible on the top termination (as in the fourth photo; in that photo, the display angle “front” shown in the other photos is to the left). In excellent condition – to the eye, no damage, and a couple of tiny nicks can be found if you search, with magnification. A super fluorapatite crystal!
