Classic, rich butterscotch brown Wulfenite from the historical Glove Mine covers the front side of a flat host rock matrix with a dense forest of thin, highly lustrous, and translucent crystals. Most of the crystals in this specimen are in near (if not fully) pristine condition, which is extremely impressive for an immense specimen like this; more impressively, Wulfenite specimens that possess the same size and condition are usually tucked away in private collections and rarely ever seen being sold in today's market. This piece comes with a custom acrylic base.
