Mineral: Quartz
Locality: Switzerland
Dimensions: 7.2x3.5x2.8

Description: Right--handed Dauphine twin from an unknown Swiss locality. This is a bit odd, in that the crystal exhibits only 2 trapezohedral x faces--one at the "upper right" corner of the front-facing prism face and the other in the "middle" of that prism face, at a suture line.
