Item Description
Striking, very pretty, gemmy and lustrous, orthorhombic, bi-colored topaz crystals are very aesthetically clustered on volcanic tuff matrix. These specimens are perhaps the most well known topazes from Mexico, due to their easily recognizable form and strong reddish-brown color. The crystals on this cutie range from reddish-brown to a fine light champagne color. These are certainly unique and very attractive, even in smaller specimens such as this one. Classic material with multiple display views. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!! The gemminess and color variations made photography difficult.
