Item Description

A sculptural very heavily etched topaz crystal with accessories from this uncommon Itinga area pegmatite. The striking, rich ice-blue, very glassy, transparent to translucent crystal looks like a Christmas tree, when viewed vertically! There are only two unetched areas on the crystal - at the very top and a 2.3 cm sliver along one edge near the top. Scattered patches of sparkly two-toned Lepidolite add pizzazz. A fascinating, fairly uncommon and artistic 360-degree etched topaz. 52 grams mass.
