Item Description

Topaz specimens from this historic German locality are a much sought-after European classic. This is a highly unusual rarity of ivory topaz pseudomorphing a sharp, doubly terminated, floater, Carlsbad-twinned orthoclase crystal! Pristine. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection and purchased from respected Frazier's Minerals in 1994. Probably older material, but no proof. An EXTREMELY RARITY.
