Smoky quartz gwindel – Galenstock, Rhone Glacier, Valais, Switzerland

 A highly twisted, alpine smoky quartz gwindel with a wonderfully brown smoky quartz color and superb transparency.
 This crystal originates from an altitude of between 2,500 and 3,000 meters. Crystals like this are painstakingly and dangerously recovered by hand from the steep slopes of the Alps.
 A top collector's item for all alpine collections!
