Description/Interesting Notes:
A classic smoky quartz "gwindel" from Switzerland!!! This specimen consists of a sharp, undamaged smoky quartz gwindel crystal in
association with adularia, minor epidote, and partially dusted with green chlorite!!! The gwindel crystal has sharp faces with gemmy
clarity, glassy luster and
shows characteristic rotation along the c-axis!!! The crystal is complete, doubly terminated, and undamaged all around!!! The
adularia is present as translucent whitish crystals and there are some small, dark green crystals of epidote perched among them!!!
Way better than the pics show!!! Classic old time material!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
