Description
Exceptional double gwindel quartz, clear, floating, and perfectly recrystallized.
Important detail, these two specimens have been glued back in their initial position.
Very beautiful aestheticism for these crystals of quartz gwindel.
The gwindels are quartz with a twist; in France, they are found exclusively in the Mont Blanc Massif. (This one was found a few hundred meters from the border).
Gwindel from the Glacier des Grands above Trient in the Valais region of Switzerland, Massif du Mont Blanc.
Specimen from the collection of Eric Asselborn and here is a video below:
