Not cube-ish, not roughly square — genuine cubes with edges you could measure, stacked and interlocking across the matrix as though something had assembled them on purpose. On this piece they are purple, and the dark sphalerite crystals scattered among them make the colour read even deeper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is an Elmwood cubic fluorite cluster: 13 by 11 by 8 inches, 20.4 kilograms, a single specimen rather than a size option. Pieces like this are bought by people who already know what they are looking at — and they are equally at home on an altar, where the geometry does most of the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#2c3a37;\"\u003eAt a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCubic fluorite cluster with sphalerite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20.4 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e13\" x 11\" x 8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharp, interlocking purple cubes on natural matrix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle specimen — this exact piece ships\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFreestanding; displays without a mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#2c3a37;\"\u003eHow to Use It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCabinet specimens live or die by their lighting and their angle.
