An excellent smaple of the famouse marmota-cleft at Grimsel area. The crystals show the very best quality you can imagine (even for Switzerland). They are all water-clear, all faces show wonderful texture, the termination is razor-sharp. And the assemble is simply superb - teh main crystal raise up like a rocket ready for take-off in the center of the piece. Really a first-class specimen in excellent condition!
