Item Description

Classic rich ice-blue color on this sculptural, limpid topaz crystal from the renowned Xanda Mine. The unusual form of the water-clear, super glassy and lustrous crystal is nicely accented by the coatings of scintillating lepidolite crystals. The 1.8 cm, doubly terminated, tabular quartz crystal on the back is a fine accessory. MUCH better in person!!! The gem clarity, lustre, glassiness and lepidolite on the back made photography difficult. It definitely has cuttable gem material. 287 grams mass. Valued at $1250-1500. A fine topaz from the Xanda Mine.
