Sulfur (New Find)

Item Description

From an amazingly gemmy batch of specimens that came out in a NEW FIND from this contemporary sulfur find. The finds of beautiful crystallized sulfur in Bolivia came at a great time, when old specimens from Sicily have become really hard to get and expensive, and only a trickle is coming from Russia. The crystals on this striking CABINET plate are PARTICULARLY gemmy and LARGE - not opaque bright yellow, but TRANSPARENT and jewel-like (much better in person!). The large crystal is 3.0 cm! A bit of periphery wear is noted, but the interior is in super shape. The camera does not come close to capturing them; they are really like bright gems - way beyond Italian or Russian sulfurs in brightness and luster!
