A smoky mauve-brown fluorite ball with a frosted, finely textured surface, set in a small geode of bright white quartz crystals from Nashik. The darker sphere stands out strongly against the sparkling white lining.

Fluorite usually forms cubes or octahedra, so rounded, botryoidal balls are an unusual habit, and one the Deccan Traps basalts of Nashik have become known for. This darker, purple-brown tone is less common than the usual yellow and honey colors.

A neat miniature of botryoidal fluorite in quartz.
