This fascinating feathery, or fern-like form of Native Silver is an icon of Pöhla-Tellerhäuser mine in the Schwarzenberg District, Saxony, Germany. Quite unlike any other Native Silver form from other world occurrences the Native Silver forms delicate feather-like fronds which are usually etched out from massive Native Arsenic. Bright silvery-white, they standout magnificently against the dull black Native Arsenic. Under magnification the Native Silver branches and dendrites are mesmerizingly beautiful. This is a remarkable Native Silver from Saxony, full of character and charm.
