An exquisite, arborescent cluster of SHARP and 3-dimensional copper crystals, perched one atop the other. It is from the noted collection of Dr. Terry Wallace (longtime native elements and silvers collector), apparently traded or sold to dealer Gene Schlepp, who then sold it on to Dr. Ed David. It was in the Ed David collection when I got it in 2003. I have since sold it and, recently, exchanged it back. Joe Budd photos.
