Item Description

A striking, very rich and showy three-sided combination from the famous Rowley Mine. Classic, gemmy, yellow-orange wulfenite windowpanes, to 8 mm, are dramatically concentrated on the crest and cascade down one side of the barite matrix on this very fine piece. Spherical aggregates of tiny, gemmy, yellow-orange mimetite prisms are festooned on two sides and mimetite crystals are embedded on and included-in the wulfies adding bright color and flair to this outstanding and classic combination. All of the many wulfies are pristine. Exceptional Rowley Mine wulfenite and mimetite from the Ann Williams Collection and Bruce Murphy Arizona Collection. Valued at $500-750 for richness and quality.
