Item Description
A classic, beautiful, darker sherry-colored topaz crystal from a New Find in Pakistan. The blocky crystal is a water-clear gem with a very complex pinacoidal, chisel termination. Some prism and termination faces are water-clear, like windowpanes, while others have a frosted, wrinkled look. This is excellent cutter-quality material. 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. 76 grams. MUCH,MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
