Gemstone: Fluorite - 16.41 Cts.
Diana Maria Mine
Rogerly Quarry
Stanhope, County Durham
England
17.93 x 12.75 x 12.73 mm

This lush green Fluorite weighs 16.35 carats and is cut in a graceful pear shape that enhances its lively color. The stone displays a bright, slightly bluish-green hue with moderate saturation, while internal inclusions create a soft, diffused brilliance rather than sharp transparency. Faceting is well-proportioned, allowing light to move evenly across the surface despite the material's natural inclusions. Sourced from the Diana Maria Mine, a locality known for producing distinctive Fluorite, this piece reflects both origin and character. This is an attractive example of Fluorite valued for its color and presence rather than conventional clarity.

Estimate: $400 - up.
