Item Description

A sculptural old-time copper specimen. Part of it looks like the molten copper flowed around the long dissolved away matrix and part is composed of subhedral crystals. This specimen has been cleaned to improve the rich coppery patina, luster and bring out the green epidote coatings. Classic material. It has an interesting biomorphic look to it.
