Item Description

A classic specimen of the famous Red Cloud Wulfenites. This thumbnail features several sharp, lustrous, intense red-orange colored tabular crystals of Wulfenite measuring up to 1.6 cm on very minor matrix. It's more of a reference specimen than anything as there are little "chips" that can be seen on the crystals, so it's not in pristine condition. The color is nearly as good as it gets for the species Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#834). Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record and the 50+ page article in the German Magazine "Mineralien Welt" November-December 2017).
