SOLD
A unique, sculptural, large cabinet copper specimen from the mines at Bisbee. This copper specimen looks like a pointed trowel or carpenter's plane with a handle. Cuprite causes the intense, rust-red color. The bottom of the "trowel" and the underside of the "handle" have striking, arborescent copper growth patterns. This is old material from Bisbee. Ex. Mullane Collection.
