Item Description

A dense nest of beautifully burnished silver wires fills a cork-stoppered glass vial on this rich and old-time classic from the famous silver mines at Freiberg. The specimen is probably over 100 years old and comes from the collection of Kay Robertson, a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see article in May, 2007 Min Record). Rich specimens of small wires are actually very rare from here!
