This is a very 3-dimensional specimen! From the ...

Silver : Ag

Kearsarge Mine, Kearsarge, Houghton Co., Michigan, USA

OK, we have all seen "small silvers" but how many have such character that they are world class thumbnails? This specimen has a beautiful and aesthetic series of long slender Silver crystals combined with well-formed shorter crystals. The color and patina are excellent and the luster metallic and shiny. Completely crystallized all around, this is ...

Silver : Ag

Kearsarge Mine, Kearsarge, Houghton Co., Michigan, USA

A sharp silver thumbnail with brilliant color and excellent, sharply-terminated crystals to 2 cm in size. This is a very 3-dimensional piece that is good from all sides and complete all around.

Silver : Ag

Kearsarge Mine, Kearsarge, Houghton Co., Michigan, USA

A sharp silver miniature with extremely sharp crystals sticking out from a central stalk. Complete all around, except on the back side where it is contacted. Amazingly, it stands on its own, balanced by the crystals at its base! This is a very 3-dimensional piece. From the thumbnail/mini suite of Gene Meieran's native elements collection, though ...

Silver : Ag

Kearsarge Mine, Kearsarge, Houghton Co., Michigan, USA

4.8 x 2.7 x 1.0 cm. Very sharp, arborescent silver crystals form these old mines. Most such specimens date to the early 1900s, or late 1800s, although of course small pockets were found later in the mines and the dumps and there is no way to be sure without old labels. This is, regardless, a classic old-style and a fine miniature of American ...
