Gemmy, yellow-gold fluorite in an essentially spherical form, sitting on bright, colorless quartz crystals. The fluorite is not crisply crystallized; it has grown as a rounded mass, but it is very transparent and lights up beautifully when backlit.
Some of the underlying quartz crystals show faint zones of amethyst and smoky quartz, a subtle extra detail under magnification. Spherical fluorite of this kind is a specialty of the Deccan basalt of Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh. A clean, attractive small cabinet piece from the Aurangabad district, collected in 2021.
