Item Description
A cute miniature quartz from this well-known Swiss locale. The four intergrown glassy, water-clear to translucent crystals are doubly termimated and pristine. Three of the crystals are tabular with the stout crystal having hexagonal form. Ex Kay Robertson Collection # 12928. Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record and the 50+ page article in the German Magazine "Mineralien Welt" November-December 2017). The crystals shapes and architecture add to the allure of this excellent piece. It has multiple fine display views.
