A 3-dimensional, aesthetic example of this rarer replacement, with a rich natural patina to it. This is the sharpest, finest such example of copper replacement of the famous Fiero azurites, that I have ever seen. It is surely an old piece, probably 50 years or more out of the ground. It is a MONSTER compared to others on the market. They are rare as it is, mind you...but a complete miniature sized floater of such sharpness?!?! unheard of. 4.5 x 3.8 x 3 cm
