Item Description

Straw-yellow, translucent, wulfenite blades, to 2.1 cm, are richly encrusted with sparkly sprays of gray to white hemimorphite lathes on this sculptural lightweight crust from the famous 79 Mine. The major wulfies are all pristine on this excellent combination from the Harold Urish Collection. This fine and classic piece probably dates to the major finds of the 1970s. Valued at $750.
