An extremely aesthetic, curved silver wire beautifully growing upward from the snow-white calcite on this very showy miniature from the famous early 1980s find at the New Nevada Mine at Batopilas, Mexico. Classic and exquisite material. The little plate of matrix on the calcite really sets this piece off.
