This a hard-to-find location for a beautiful Quartz point. We got this out of the Hawthorneden unprepped flats, which means they probably bought this in Munich or in Switzerland, back in the 1990's or earlier. The Quartz is internally flawless, and has a slight green coating of Chlorite. It has two side crystals, all are undamaged. It weighs 371 grams (13 oz). It is brighter in person, and is overall a fine example of Swiss Quartz.
