Description

A small cabinet specimen of yellow wulfenite crystals fully covering a slice of rock. A myriad of tabular crystals shows the typical habitus occasionally some additional faces. Overall lustre is medium to good. As all crystals are exposed and very thin, a few display some contacts, although not distracting from the aesthetic and richness of this specimen.

A very rich wulfenite specimen from the Italian Alps, and quite an oldtimer. Dated back to the 80s, specimens of this quality and from this locality are nowadays quite scarce.
