Swiss quartzes: Rock crystal and smoky quartz
Zum Webshop
Our Alps are world famous for beautiful quartz specimens, especially spectacular smoky quartz. We always have a very good selection of hand picked quartz specimens in our inventory, from miniature pieces to large, important clusters. Neddless to say, we get our quartzes directly from sources so expect good prices.
Very typical and very nice: Dark smoky quartz on white granite matrix.
White quartz (rock crystal) is less typical for our Alps but nevertheless available in very nice specimens.
A specialty of the Swiss Alps: Gwindels. This very special type of quartz growth is a rarity worldwide but occurs in several places in Switzerland. Usually, you'll find dozens of gwindels in our inventory, from the inexpensive to the top piece.
Morion, a particularly dark smoky quartz occurs in the highest regions of our Alps and is very much sought after.
