Item Description
This striking, old-time, Michigan copper specimen looks like a bronze sculpture highlighted by the fabulous, sharp, elongated, 2.5 cm, tetrahexahedral copper crystal with a rich patina, high luster and nifty striations. The crystal is artistically "cast" on the large crystallized copper base and pedestal, that is colorfully accented with embedded green epidote on all sides. A classic and excellent old-time floater, probably dating to prior to World War I. Valued at $900 for sharp large crystal size and quality.
