Emanating from a gnarled matrix of silver is a single, curving, arched filament of wire silver; possibly the thinnest silver wire I have ever seen by the time it terminates so elegantly. It greatly resembles the filament in a light bulb. However, its not as fragile as this all sounds! It is a rare locality piece, from this famous and long-defunct mine better known for its rare copper species 4.1 x 0.8 x 0.4 cm
