An exceptional and beautiful specimen featuring spinel-twinned native silver crystals, sculpturally adorned with calcite, from the famous Cobalt area in Ontario, Canada. It comes from the prestigious collection of Renato Pagano, Italy (with a label), that adds further value and provenance. It displays exquisite herringbone-patterned, elongated twinned silver crystals forming striking plates that create a dynamic, three-dimensional stand. The silver feathers are well formed and pristine. The white calcite crystals give a strong contrast. They are fluorescent in pink. The piece has a highly aesthetic and airy display all over. In superb condition.

A masterpiece with such elegance and natural artistry - truly a world-class example of native silver!
