Smoky Quartz (Closed Gwindel) on Quartz
Giuv Valley, Tujetsch (Tavetsch), Graubunden, Switzerland
Miniature, 5.4 x 4.2 x 2.7 cm
Ex. Eric Asselborn
SOLD
This is one of my alltime favorite gwindels of any price range because it is so elegant in its composition, with a strongly twisted smoky of total transparency combined with a rich internal brightness, rising vertically from a slim matrix of normal prismatic quartz crystals that contrast the form of the gwindel so starkly. Matrix gwindels are uncommon, especially good ones of this quality - and it is undamaged, pristine, and complete 360 degrees so that it can be viewed from any side. NOTE: Not from the Hauck Collection. This is from the collection of Dr. Eric Asselborn, but it fit well with this update and so here it is.
