Item Description

A gorgeous, gem, 1.7 cm, peach-colored, topaz crystal is jauntily set atop the quartz and calcite matrix. The topaz is doubly terminated. The pyramidal termination is partially bruised, with the lower termination mostly set in matrix. The base has been sawed to enhance the display quality. A classic and excellent two-sided topaz from Katlang and the Herb Obodda dealer stock. Very little new material has come from the Mardan District in the last few years.
