Item Description
An elegant Wulfenite cluster from Tsumeb! Seven gorgeous and glassy, bright orange Wulfenite crystals grace just the perfect amount of matrix on this elegant miniature. The crystals display textbook morphology with their squarish, tabular form and slightly beveled edges. Their size ranges from 0.6 cm at the smallest to 1.6 cm for larger ones. Their beautiful, translucent to transparent orange color is really more reminiscent of some of the better Wulfenites from Arizona or Mexico! All of the crystals are complete and very sharp edge to edge. The Wulfenites are also nicely isolated on the piece to show off their charm, and nearly pristine (a few small dings, only). The small amount of matrix that hosts them is mostly granular, dark sulfide for a gorgeous contrast. This is an exquisite miniature! Valued $2000. Tsumeb wulfenite in this quality is very rare.
