Item Description

An adorable miniature of spinel-twinned silver "feathers" from the famous 1980s finds at the New Nevada Mine. The angled feather is fabulous in its placement and architecture. The other end of the curved crystals looks like a closed loop, but its not. The bit of enclosing calcite matrix is a nice accent and the variable burnished twins are beautiful. Excellent material from the Consie Prince Collection.
