Item Description
Here we have two fine examples of aesthetically crystallized Copper from one of the most historic and classic mining districts extant. The unique and branching arborescent form of the Coppers have notably sharp crystals, which vary in habit from cubes to dodecahedra to "Spinel"-Law twins. The pieces have superb patinas, and are very aesthetic for the size. These specimens are becoming more and more difficult to find on the market today, and these thumbnails are nice display specimens of this most highly sought after material from Broken Hill.
