Description
Here we have a striking Wulfenite specimen from Mežica in Slovenia with well developed and tapering crystals on matrix. Old Slovenia Wulfenites really set the standard in old mineralogy, and in European collecting of lead minerals in particular, for a long time. Today, most people are more familiar with the great Wulfenites from Arizona, Mexico, or China, and have forgotten that Slovenia actually produces Wulfenites that could rank among the world´s top locales. This is one such piece, an old specimen that has relatively large size, almost butterscotch colour, and rather thick, robust crystals. A super specimen with great aesthetics.
