Exquisite "feathers" of spinel-twinned silver crystals aesthetically and richly cover both sides of the starkly contrasting calcite vein perched on matrix on this outstanding silver specimen from the Jaime Bird Collection. The crystals have a variable patina, which really adds character to this lovely piece. This piece is from the much less well-known New Hope Bay Mine of NW Terrritories, Canada.
