Item Description

A striking, desirable, uncommon, high quality smoky quartz small cabinet combination from this well-known Swiss locale. A 5.1 cm twisted gwindel is dramatically attached to the side of the sharply terminated crystal. Both glassy and lustrous crystals are water-clear gem and have fine light smoky color. The frosted termination faces of the smoky accentuate the glass-clear faces of the smoky and gwindel. Contacting on the back of the smoky crystal, the sawed base and the attachment at the base of the gwindel are noted, but certainly have minimal impact to exceptional presentation of this outstanding combination. Comes with a custom-made and engraved lucite base, valued at $175, for free. Choice and uncommon combination smoky quartz from the Brent Lockhart Swiss Collection, sold off in 2020. Valued at $2500-3000 today. He bought it from the strahlers' dealers of choice directly, from the Siber and Siber dealership in Aathal.
