Lot 46 | NATIVE SILVER ON ACANTHITE
Estimate value
£ 2 000 – 3 000
A dense mass of Native Silver wires up to 1½ inches (2½ inches or longer if stretched out) spirals upward dramatically from an Acanthite matrix. Looking somewhat like an inverted tornado, they have a lovely, shiny golden patina, with conglomerate masses. Another spray of thinner, twisted convoluted wires also spirals upward, intertwining with the thicker ones to further compliment this superbly sculptured ensemble.21/4 x 11/3 x 1in. (6 x 3.5 x 3cm.)
