Description
The always amazing English Fluorite never fails to impress. When I saw a set of Purple Rain Pocket pieces with giant cubes, I was instantly enamored. I feel luck to have them. The surfaces on the Lady Annabella Mine pieces is so interesting. I would describe them as way & stepped. The mottled textured inclusions are characteristic of many of these English pockets. Let's not forget about the daylight UV fluorescence these have. They go from purple to ultraviolet in the sunlight. So cool & that's pretty rare. AND, under a longwave UV light they highly fluoresce a bright bright blue. Let's break it down a little more, for fun... Fluorescence is "The emission of light (or other electromagnetic radiation) by a material when stimulated by the absorption of radiation or of a subatomic particle."
