Item Description
This is quite simply one of the finest pure topaz specimens in its size, we have seen from Pakistan. It has a symmetrical geometry that is shocking, and commands the eye to look at it, shaped like a perfectly balanced V. The crystals are superb - gemmy, transparent, and geometric all. Each is 5.5 cm tall. Miraculously, it is not repaired. For the size class, this might be my favorite of the large group of Pakistani topaz specimens in the Meieran collection, built over 30 years as these were contemporary. It looks like it is a specimen made for a full page cover photo - the video should say it all. Valued highly.
