Item Description

A classic Swiss Smoky Quartz specimen from the famous Goscheneralp featuring a sharp, lustrous, incredibly well-formed, hexagonal, prismatic WATER CLEAR crystal with a minor dusting of Clinochlore on the termination. Alpine Quartz specimens are among the finest quality Quartzes in the world, and many people would say that the best Quartz crystals from Switzerland are the best from the Alps. This is a good overall piece, better than just a reference specimen, and a worthwhile pickup for anybody who collects Quartz, Alpine minerals, gem crystals or well-formed crystals.
