Item Description

A fine, gemmy single crystal of pinkish-purple Imperial Topaz with a typical steep termination. The color in this crystal is good for this size. It is NOT orange either, truly pinkish-purple, but by no means "brownish". All the faces are lustrous without any kind of coating. There are not many minerals that are found in purple crystals, and the purple Imperials are rarely seen on the market. They color is 100% natural, and highly sought after by collectors. This is a cool little gem crystal with a unique and alluring color that would make a nice additional to a small gem crystal suite.
