A very large, incredibly sculptural and dramatic specimen of native copper from New Mexico! It features beautiful leafy forms that grow out in all directions, making the specimen wonderfully 3-dimensional. The branches and "leaves" are beefier and sturdier than they look, despite their elegant form. The surface has a pretty "antique" patina to it. This "sculpture" made by nature weighs in at 2.9 pounds!
