Highly lustrous, glassy, butterscotch-colored wulfenite blades richly cover the sculptural, curved gossan matrix on this fine specimen from the Glove Mine of Arizona. Many of the windowpanes, to 1.1 cm, are transparent. There are some broken crystals; it's almost impossible to find a pristine Glove wulfenite. This remains a very highly representative example of the species and famed locale. Excellent, older material.
