During the 1990s a flurry of fine, well-crystallized yellow to yellow-orange Wulfenite specimens appeared from Touissit in Morocco. Just three decades on and specimens are hard to come by. This miniature specimen from Nick Hawes' collection, and prior to that Shirley Adrian, is a superb example, featuring really well-formed bright yellow-orange tabular crystals with prominent bevelled edges and a wonderful greasy, to 'wet' lustre. At 1.5 cm on edge the largest crystal is quite an impressive size, but the specimen actually displays better on the other side with crystals to 1.2 cm across. The Wulfenite crystals on both sides are almost immaculate, with just the minutest of surface edge wear. A very classy Moroccan Wulfenite.
