Constructed specimen of natural Silver wires glued into a vug of Pyrite and Quartz crystals. There are 4 Silver clusters
in the vug, each about 1cm in size glued into the vug (you can see glue when looking closely with a loupe). This was sold to the previous owner as a natural specimen and comes with the sellers old label. There is a
date of 1912 painted on the back so perhaps the construction was done many years ago.
