Item Description
Mineral specimens are very uncommon from this less well-known area in the famous Giuv Valley. This smoky quartz gwindel is water-clear, but the sparkly microcrystalline chlorite has lightly etched/frosted the prism faces. This is a slightly twisted closed gwindel. The smoky point on the back is a nice accent. The frontal view is pristine. Rare and choice material from this locale.
