Item Description
A dramatic, highly sculptural large floater copper from Copper Country. The flattened copper has a dramatic bend to the long arm, that really adds pizzazz! The copper has a nice patina and consists of massive copper, tetrahexahedrons to 7 cm and spinel-twins to 5 cm. Pink apophyllite embedded on both sides is a fine, contrasting accent. Multiple fine views, with the horizontal view resembling a striking reptile with a very elongated neck. Classic, old-time material.
