Topaz, Cleavelandite & Quartz ex Obodda

Item Description

A gorgeous, 2.0 x 1.8 x 1.4 cm, water-clear, gem topaz with fine cognac color and a classic flattened chisel termination is very aesthetically set on the large rolling matrix of pearlescent cleavelandite blades and glassy quartz crystals. A smaller 1.3 cm topaz is nearby. Some of the quartz crystals are peppered with tiny spessartines and the preferential drusy quartz coating on some of the quartz crystal faces are nifty accents. Choice and excellent conmbination material from this more obscure Pakistan locale. It looks great from either side and the noted periphery wear is certainly only a modest detraction. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. Herb valued this piece at $850, more than 5 years ago.
