Description

An old and unusually large and fine silver specimen. Pohla silver is known for its extremely photogenic herringbone-like crystallization, which you see here in all its intricate beauty. The silver is embedded in and flowering out from massive matrix of silver and arsenic ore. This piece has a huge display face, just covered with good quality silver of a style that made this one of the more famous silver localities for collectors for many years. Today, they are hard to obtain. Superb!
