There are very sharp and well-defined spinel-twinned crystals of silver to fully one centimeter in length growing in a fine, sculptural form, and this "sculpture" is perched on a natural "base" of copper. These are very SHARP for the species and locality, all the more so in person. A SUPERB specimen which would be quite a fine specimen just as a Michigan silver, never mind the copper "base" that makes it a more rare and desirable combo! Looks like an artist put this piece together! I cannot emphasize enough the quality of the piece. 6.5 x 2.5 x 2.2 cm
