A sculptural native silver specimen from Kongsberg, Norway displaying complex intergrowths of crystalline silver exhibiting crude cube and cubo-octahedral forms. Geometric casts on the specimen probably indicate the former presence of calcite rhombs that experienced dissolution long ago. A very intriguing piece that is atypical of most Kongsberg silvers. Ex. F. John Barlow collection with his distinctive SANCO Global Resources logo on the label.
