Daniel Trinchillo Sr. had a special attraction to quartz specimens. His collection contained many and this is certainly a very fine example from a much less common Swiss locality - Windegghorn Mountain in Bern. This striking, gem-like, water-clear, pretty, light smoky quartz crystal is water-clear, sharp, and has very interesting stepped-growth faces. Complete-all-around. The gem-like quality of the crystal made photography difficult.
