A striking and sculptural Fluorite mineral specimen from Erongo Mountains, Namibia, featuring delicate pastel zoning in soft blue, violet, and icy clear tones. A large dark brown streak of “ink” gives this particular pocket the name pen fluorite as it resembles the ink running through the middle of a pen.
The diagonal inclusion line similar to the ink tube in a ball point pen, (thus the name Pen Fluorite), adds character and depth, while the upper crystal exhibits a frosted, light-catching surface that glows under illumination.
Fluorite from Erongo is especially prized for its color zoning, unusual crystal habits, and aesthetic combinations of translucency and structure . This specimen is a fine example of that signature style: compact, visually dynamic, and highly displayable.
