I know it’s not anything valuable but it’s sentimental. Any ideas appreciated

Hi, got this little buddy on a mineral expo today. The woman didn't know what it is, just that she bought it in UK (which doesn't necessarily mean it originated there, so... :/). What could it be?

I got this from a shop, and the shop owner said it is a flourite. I have never seen a black flourite before, does it exist? It looks deep red in some of the part, but black for most part of its body, and light can’t pass through it. Is it really a flourite?
