This large aggregate of Native Sulphur crystals from the Kessler Collection was reportedly found at Agrigento Province in Sicily in the 1950s or 1960s. It features many large crystals, with one composite aggregate of alligned crystals reaching over 6 cm in length but the largest single crystal is 2.8 cm long. As is the case with most larger older Native Sulphur specimens there is some damage from abrasion to the edges of crystals and in particular around the sides of the specimen. The majority of the specimen is Native Sulphur, with fine grained Native Sulphur evident internally on the reverse of the piece, but a powdery white substance is also to be seen on the main display surface coating the gaps between the larger Native Sulphur crystals. The Native Sulphur crystals are mostly translucent to opaque and of a generally darker yellow to slightly orange-yellow in comparison to smaller crystallized specimens. Classic material from the world's greatest region for Native Sulphur crystals.
