An elegant, thick silver wire from this famous Canadian locality, terminating in a loop-de-loop of intricate swirls. The bottom is also terminated!. This is an unusually large and thick wire silver specimen for the locality (robust, not fragile!). They are always much cheaper compared to similar-sized German and Kongsberg wires, though they look pretty much the same to my eye. Still, this is older material and getting harder and harder to obtain. Beyond that, this is a particularly elegant silver from any locale. 4 cm tall
