Item Description
Silver wire specimens are very RARE from the famous Huanzala Mine of Peru. This striking and aesthetic piece features a curved and curled silver wire protruding out of a quartz pod in sulfide matrix. A smaller bit of quartz and sulfide is attached to the wire, with the dramatic curved and curled, 1.5 cm wire segment on top! Very nifty and uncommon material from a New Find at this famous locale.
