Gem Topaz crystal (New Find) - 172 grams

Item Description

A classic, sherry-colored topaz crystal from a New Find in Pakistan. The blocky crystal is water-clear gem with a frosted termination. Technically, this is a doubly terminated crystal, as the base is contacted, but has very little damage, per se. Three of the prism faces are water-clear, like windowpanes, with one corner being a bit cloudy. The fourth face is contacted. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with one small spot of bruising on the contacted prism face. Minimal internal crazing is noted. This is excellent cutter-quality material with rich color. Please note that these crystals can fade to colorless when exposed to sunlight, or possibly any light, so it should be kept out of the light if possible to help retain its color. 172 grams.
