Description
This specimen, like others in theJoachim Hennrich collection, is carefully chosen to represent the finest quality level of Gwindel Smoky Quartz in this size range, with sharp and gemmy crystals perched on matrix in aesthetic balance that is highly unusual for the material. The CLOSED Gwindel here is windowpane transparent and pristine all around. The whole specimen is complete and unrepaired. The major crystal is undamaged as well and has a rehealed contact at the backside. While single Gwindels are common enough, such a matrix piece is exceedingly rare, especially without repairs. An excellent summary of the more technical aspects of these amazing styles of Quartz, called Gwindels after the German word for "twisted". This is a KILLER PIECE all the way,- and comes with a high quality lucite custom base. Valued in our stock with € 3000,00!!!
