Item Description
Click here for a video of this specimen!
A water-clear, light champagne-colored, gem topaz crystal from the classic finds in Pakistan - common in quantity, but NOT in quality like this! At 4.7cm in size, this sharp floater crystal is a wonderful miniature , complete all around and competitive. The few tiny imperfections on an edge you can see, are simnply contacts where it grew against cleavelandite. It has a combination of clarity and luster that make it look like natural glass, stunning in person. Just over 50 grams mass. Difficult to photograph, so please do look to the video. This is perhaps not showing to its best in photos, but in person, you would see why the former owner (and us) value it at $2500-plus. it is a stone cold killer specimen...
