A great copper specimen from the Kearsarge Mine, at the far Northern tip of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The Kearsarge Mine operated between 1897 and 1931, and again for a few years in the middle of the century; this piece likely dates to the earlier interval.
When it comes to Michigan copper, I personally look for 3 things: clear sharp crystals, good patina, and an attractive overall from. This self-standing piece checks all three boxes, with numerous crystals and crystal faces visible throughout, and the left branch being a cluster of large, elongated crystals with very clear form. The overall shape of the piece is quite sculptural as well, and the size and its visual balance make for a particularly nice display.
