Fluorite Crystal in Brass Stand
About the Item
British isometric fluorite crystal elegantly displayed among clusters of gemstone crystals - authentically encapsulated with striking aesthetics that detail the isometric cubic form against the brass element.
Fluorite is a strikingly colourful mineral that has been cherished for its beauty and versatility throughout history. Its use dates back to ancient civilisations, where it was carved into decorative objects, statues, and ornaments. The Romans prized fluorite for its vivid hues and used it to create exquisite drinking vessels, such as the famed murrine cups. During the Industrial Revolution, fluorite became significant as a flux in steel production, giving the mineral its name from the Latin fluere, meaning "to flow." Today, fluorite is highly sought after for its vibrant colours, which range from purple and blue to green and yellow, and its applications in jewellery, industrial processes, and optical instruments.

Blue Fluorite Crystal Mineral Specimen, Yaogangxian Mine, China
Located in Edison, NJ
The Yaogangxian mine (whose name translates to, “Jade-Mountain god”) is located within a 4 x 2.5 km expanse of a tungsten-tin (W-Sn) deposit in the Hunan Province of China. Although the deposit has been mined since 1914 for ore, it has only recently been a source of collectible mineral specimens. Despite being among the newer finds in the mineral collecting world, YGX fluorites have distinguished themselves with their enchanting water-color blues, lilacs, and purples and propensity for good form.
