Coldstones Lavender Fluorite, North Yorkshire, England
Coldstones Lavender Fluorite, North Yorkshire, England
Description
A soft lavender-purple fluorite specimen, the pale violet tone running consistently through the crystal with a gentle translucency that catches the light. A more delicate, restrained colour than the golden material this locality is often known for, giving the piece a soft, more subtle presence on display.
This UK fluorite specimen comes from Coldstones Quarry, Greenhow, in the Pateley Bridge district of North Yorkshire, England; part of the historic North Pennine Orefield. While the quarry is best known among collectors for its honey and golden-toned fluorite, it has also produced this softer lavender-purple material, making pieces like this one a nice variation on the classic Coldstones look.
You will receive the exact specimen and stand photographed.

Note
All crystals and ceramic works offered by Atelier Lithic are inherently unique. Variations in size, colour, surface texture, and form are natural and should be expected.
Crystals are natural materials formed in the earth and may include surface irregularities such as natural fissures, internal veils, growth marks, contact points from where the crystal was attached to the host rock, or areas where the specimen was mined or extracted. These features are part of the crystal’s natural formation and are not considered defects. Defects are disclosed within the item description.
For crystals:
- When a listing includes numbered options (for example, 001, 002, etc.), each number corresponds to a specific crystal shown in the photos. Selecting a number means you will receive that exact crystal.
- When a crystal is shown as a group or range and sold as a quantity of one without numbered options, the images represent examples of what is available. You will receive one crystal, selected from the group, with natural variation.
For ceramics:
- All ceramic pieces are one of a kind. Unless otherwise stated, you will receive the exact piece shown in the listing photos.
