Native copper Crystal on matrix - Height: 173 mm - Width: 119 mm- 732 g - (1)

Exemplar of native copper with notable aesthetic presence, originating from the Oumjrane-Alnif mining district. This piece stands out for its arborescent and cavernous habit, forming a skeletal structure of great three-dimensional complexity that evokes organic formations.
The metallic matrix features a deep natural patina that enhances the color contrast with the quartz crystals and possible intergrown calcite growths. What elevates this piece to showroom level is the arrangement of the white crystals, which appear to speckle the copper structure like a mineral snowfall, providing points of light against the dark copper hue.
From a crystallographic standpoint, rough surfaces and microcrystalline terminations typical of deposits from this Moroccan region are evident. It is a large piece, with excellent visual balance and a silhouette that allows multiple angles of exposure, ideal for collectors seeking contrasted textures and classic provenance from North Africa.
