Silver on Acanthite - superb tn

Item Description

Imiter is one of the world's best localities for outstanding Silver specimens, and this choice thumbnail shows exactly why. The Silver wires, almost ropes on this scale, have a very definite character to them as they bend. Said ropes are composed of wire strands that create a classic, striated look, and the bright luster and slightly iridescent patina are desirable traits for fine Silvers. The Silvers grow on a matrix of Acanthite and possibly Quartz, forming a very well-known association. The aesthetics of this thumbnail are quite good, bolstered by such good visual composition and form, making it a competitive-class thumbnail silver specimen for this important location.
