THE most famous Broken Hill classic to most people, is the sharp spinel twinned coppers! Here is a special miniature, of high level quality and elegance. Spinel twin copper crystals, to 2.3 cm in length, have given rise to very aesthetic, feather-like appendages. The whole specimen exhibits a beautiful chocolate-colored patina. Simply striking, in person. These classics date to the turn of the 1900's
