Description

Nice cluster consisting of an aggregate of cristals of sulphur, which show a classic bi-pyramidal habit and very good brightness and transparence. The cluster is a floater and has no matrix. It doesn't come from the most known sicilian area, but from continental Italy, which is a much more rare locality for well cristallized specimens. This specimen can probably be dated to beginning of 1800.
