Item Description
A STRIKING, feather-like, LARGE CABINET copper specimen from Michigan"s famous Copper Country and the Richard Hauck Copper Collection. This outstanding, old-timer is extensively and sharply crystallized on both sides and has a beautiful, buttery, copper patina. The upper portion of this giant is very nicely arborescent. Copper crystal forms include spinel-twins and tetrahexahedrons. The scattered bit of embedded matrix and the two copper "feet" add character. Valued at $1750-2000, for size and quality and richness of copper crystallization.
