Item Description

Perched aesthetically on massive white calcite is silver with variegated patina and luster. The crystals are small but superb: many of them appear in leaf-like or dendritic patterns, up to 1.4 cm in length. There are also a number of matte black acanthite crystals, to 2 mm across, perched on silver crystals. A very aesthetic example from this find with some style. This is an ancient locality mined by the Romans, and specimens have been found in modern times by metal detecting in the dumps. A rich, fine miniature!
