Item Description
A classic, old-time thumbnail specimen from Connecticut of wolframite after a sharp scheelite octahedron from Trumbull. The pseudo is 1.4 cm on the diagonal and is preferentially coated with iron oxides, as is the massive quartz matrix. One side of the quartz has been sawed to make this a thumbnail. These pseudomorphs are seldom available from the Old Park Mine. Ex Will Henderson Collection.
