Item Description

This is certainly one of the niftiest looking Stevenson-Bennett wulfenites, that I have seen of any size. The knobby layered gossan matrix is striking, with the very rich coverage of lustrous, butterscotch-colored wulfenite blades and very complimentary fields of sugary, calcite crystals. The wulfies are up to 5 mm. This is a visually beautiful, 360-degree miniature. Choice material from the Harold Urish Collection.
