A fine and classic German Native Silver from the Schlema mining area in Erzgebirge, Saxony. Excellent, thick rope-like curled wires of metallic Native Silver very generously invest the dark metallic grey Acanthite matrix. This mining district was known for its production of bismuth, cobalt, silver and uranium. The Native Silver wires measure to around 1.6 cm and contrast perfectly against the dark Acanthite so as to stand out, showing what a very rich specimen this is. The thick curl of wires protruding from the top exemplify just how a good wire Native Silver should look and so make an ideal specimen to show off the species at it best.
