Item Description
An aesthetic and excellent, three-sided miniature of intergrown, arborescent, spinel-twinned, silver leaves or fans from the famous Kearsarge Mine. Renowned as one of the finest silver specimen producing copper mines in Copper Country, this is an easily recognized and highly desired style. The luster, variable patina and bit of attached green epidote add much character. This cutie looks great from all three sides and is a very fine piece.
