Item Description

Gemmy and lustrous, reddish-orange, wulfenite crystals to 1.2 cm are very aesthtetically set on the shard of gossan matrix on this excellent Red Gem Pocket wufenite. The large crystal is 1.3 cm and all of the crystals have classic, sharp, beveled edges. The wulfies are richly sprinkled with sparkly, colorless, calcite micro-rhombs on one side with striking effect. Very nearly pristine, with only a tiny bit of edgewear on the large crystal. This is a really cute, highly representative thumbnail. Eminently viewable from either side.
