If being a rare yellow Wulfenite from Tsumeb wasn't enough, this excellent crystal is a true windowpane Wulfenite the likes of which you don't often see. On edge, the major crystal measures 2.2 cm, with overgrowths and intergrowths of Wulfenite that add substantial visual interest. The wide bevels along the edges are sharp, and the crystal is gemmy enough that if you lay down on some print, you can easily read through it. There is a small amount of wear near one corner, but it is so angular that it looks like it belongs there, and it adds more than it detracts from the substantial aesthetics of this miniature.
