Item Description

This really cute aesthetic arborescent cluster of spinel-twinned copper crystals looks just like a Christmas tree! The crystals are nicely burnished and the bit of attached sparkly dolomite matrix (it looks like snow) adds pizzazz. Classic and excellent Tsumeb copper. Good coppers are rare from here!
