"I purchased a set of these on sale and gave them as gifts to science teachers at my school. They loved them! I purchased this set again for one gift and the others for my collection. I am a teacher and have a display of assorted objects in my classroom such as as the rock crystal figure in the wood base, amythyst geodes, cards with the various stones on it, one of the large diamond shaped glass objects, and the box with the 6 little bottles of gemstones in it. This flourite sphere along with the flourite butterfly that should arrive shortly will make great additions to this collection and will be great conversation starters with the students. Great job and prices."

"I am very pleased with my three little Fluorite spheres. They are not the color shown, but I happen to like the purple tones better anyway. Two of mine were mixed with many colors to look at and the third one, if bright light shines on it, glows with lots of color also. Be prepared, they are not big, and to keep them safe, I am going to buy BETTER stands for them. Mine have rolled out of the supplied stands a few times already. But, I didn't buy these for the stands... I bought them for the sphere's. I will look for others to add to this collection. Some are keeping one and giving the others as gifts... but if I did that, I would miss it... so they are ALL MINE!!!"
