A natural smoky quartz crystal from the Swiss Alps, featuring deep grey tones, metallic inclusions, and an intact hexagonal prism shape. Sourced from the Tour Noir glacier in Valais, this piece shows a balance of frosted and lustrous surfaces, with coppery mineral highlights that create a warm contrast against its cool smoky body.

The surface retains fine granularity and natural etching typical of Tour Noir material.
