Item Description
A very fine older Red Cloud Mine wulfenite thumbnail. The extremely glassy, gemmy to translucent crystal has rich reddish-orange color. The attached side car crystals in the center of the crystal (they look like a contact, but are not!) and the sharp textbook chisel terminations add real pizzazz to this classic two-sided beauty. Nearly pristine, with only a lightly contacted edge with trivial bruising noted near the base of the piece. Classic and excellent older wulfenite, probably dating to the 1960s to 80s. Ex Lorraine Sofia and Bruce Murphy Collections.
