An incredibly aesthetic, completely crystallized copper from Onganja. It has these two beautifully balanced branches, made up of sharp, chunky crystals from top to bottom, and a wonderful antique patina (less red in person). You just couldn't ask for much more in a copper mini for the locality, where you rarely see such 3-dimensional individual crystals of copper. A superb copper mini, particularly for the locality! 4 x 2.8 x 0.6 cm
