Silver wires (old - classic locale)

Item Description

Absolutely adorable old-time silver wire thumbnails from the famous mines at Cobalt. The elegant, smaller freeform filligree of curled and curved wires is dramatically accented with both acanthite and copper coatings. The sculptural, multi-sided, dense arborescent nest of curled and curved silver wires of variable thickness and a gorgeous varible patina is a joy to behold. Silver wires of this quality and richness are very uncommon and are highly desirable from Cobalt. Superb thumbnails and seldom on the market. They come in a 11.0 x 8.5 cm Riker box with a clear plastic face plate.
