Two beautiful rock crystals with a faden. One of the two is unusually twisted and has 2 points, on which a few small yellowish calcites have also grown. One of the two points also has small black shale inclusions. The other faden quartz is split into two parts. On the smaller upper part, the faden can be seen perfectly (see photo). 2 beautiful finds from Piz Beverin.

The Story of This Crystal
We discovered this pocket on a spring outing. A landslide in the forest had exposed the quartz vein, where we could pretty much just pick the crystals straight off it. Check out the linked Instagram video to see how we found these crystals.
