This Gwindel is truly large, measuring 14 cm in length, making it one of the giants among Gwindels. It is a crystal that was found in 2020. Despite its enormous size, the piece is very transparent, with some of its surfaces highly polished. Some smaller areas have a slight coating of chlorite, and there are some adularia at the base of the crystal. The color is slightly smoky, and despite its size, the specimen is undamaged.
