No reserve price Green, Blue, Purple Fluorite - 60.17 ct - Instituto Gemólogico Español (IGE)

Fluorite is a colorful and popular mineral known for its wide range of hues, including green, blue, and purple, all of which appear in this 60.17-carat specimen. Praised for its glassy luster and relative softness (Mohs hardness of 4), fluorite is appreciated by collectors for the beauty of its crystal forms and vibrant colors but is less commonly used in high-wear jewelry. The stone’s certification by the Instituto Gemológico Español (IGE) ensures its authenticity and quality assessment. Often forming cubic or octahedral crystals, fluorite's colors derive from various trace elements and can fluoresce under ultraviolet light, making it a favorite among mineral enthusiasts. Its usage extends beyond mere decoration, historically including industrial applications. However, in gemology and collecting, its allure centers on color variety and crystal perfection rather than durability.
