Description

This is a dramatic and rare, light brown gwindel from the classic Swiss locality for deeply smoky Gwindels,- and it is a closed Gwindel on matrix. It is very well defined, almost gemmy and has a slightly green Chlorite coating. The backside of the Gwindel has a clearly visible imperfection. This Gwindel is a indistinctive but clear twisted quartz of the classic closed style and under any circumstances a great opportunity to get hold of such a good specimen.
