Sulfur from Italy, Sicily, Agrigento Province, Cozzo Disi Mine

This is a classic, bright canary-yellow Sulfur crystal from a historic Sicilian locale. The specimen features a well formed, textbook transparent orthorhombic crystal with sharply formed faces and crisp, well-defined edges. This piece simply stands out in a case with its bright yellow color. An unusually transparent example of this material.

This lustrous, translucent-to-gemmy crystal is remarkably well-preserved given the softness and fragility of the species. It possesses a captivating resinous luster and an intense, uniform color that makes it a standout piece. The crystal is artistically positioned on a custom-engraved acrylic base, highlighting its sculptural appeal and excellent "showmanship."

Historically, such high-quality Sulfur crystals from Italy are increasingly difficult to obtain, as many of the famous mines—including the renowned Cozzo Disi Mine—have long since closed. This specimen is a superb example of the "old-timer" style, characterized by its size, transparency, and sharp, geometric form. It is truly a classic collector's piece from one of the world's most significant sulfur-bearing regions.

Custom lucite base included.
