Description
This large display specimen features two sharp, very well-formed scheelites perched atop a nicely trimmed matrix. The crystals have a classic orange color, and are to 6 cm on edge, with the larger one nearly 9 cm from tip to tip the long way across. Interestingly, the rightmost scheelite has a pocket growth on its front face of small, gemmy, glassy beryl crystals, just tucked in there. Both scheelites display exceptional freestanding form and show most of their octohedral terminations up in the air. Such large, display-worthy pieces have become noticeably rarer of late years, as a result of many factors in both China and the mine itself. It displays nicely on a custom lucite base.

Scheelite Sales Data
How this data is collected: Our system continuously monitors mineral listings from authorized dealer partners across the internet. We have explicit permission from all dealers whose listings we track - any dealers who have not provided specific and explicit authorization are NOT listed and NOT tracked by our system. When a previously available listing is marked as sold or removed from sale, we record this as a completed transaction. While we cannot guarantee the exact final sale price (as negotiations may occur), this data represents publicly listed prices for specimens that have transitioned from "for sale" to "sold" status. This provides valuable market insights based on observable listing behavior patterns.
