Description
From a recent amazingly gemmy batch of specimens to come from this recent sulfur find. The finds of beautiful crystallized sulfur in Bolivia came at a great time, when old specimens from Sicily have become really hard to get and expensive, and only a trickle is coming from Russia. They are really like the brightest yellow jewels you could imagine - way beyond Italian or Russian sulfurs in brightness and luster!
Known provenanceKnowing where your specimen comes from and who owned it adds to its story and value. Good provenance helps prove it's authentic and preserves important details about its discovery.
