Octahedral pink Fluorite crystal intergrown with a blade of Albite. It looks like half an octahedron as the back side is smooth and flat, but it is fully crystallized (not a cleavage) and must have grown against another Albite blade. Out of an old collection built in the 1970s-80s. Better color (more pink, less yellow/orange) than photos. Here's a great chance to get a Swiss pink Fluorite!
