The combination of sulfur and celestine is an old classic from this locality. The translucent-to-transparent sulfurs here have an unusual butterscotch color. The celestines are translucent, sharp and lustrous. From the Seaman Museum - comes with the museum label. And it's beautiful on its own merits, as well as being a historic classic!
