Gorgeous smoky quartz crystal with a crown of adularia - a true alpine treasure from a famous find at Austria's highest peak. The prism faces and the bottom of the quartz crystal exhibit amazing recrystalization pattern consisting of countless edges, striations and lustrous subfaces that generate a unique, sparkling appearance. The interior of the crystal is totally clear, i.e. free of cracks or inclusions. Seldom opportunity to get a decent specimen from Großglockner mountain!
