Item Description
A beautiful piece of polished colorless Topaz with unknown inclusions from Sakhan-gyi. There are different inclusions, but the main focus for my eye is near the center of the stone, as it actually seems to show a bit of pleochroism and shifts from a golden hue to nearly colorless depending upon the angle at which it's viewed. From the collection of Bill ("Burma Bill") Larson of Fallbrook, California. Bill is a well-known gem and mineral dealer as well as a miner and collector. Bill traveled the world for decades in search of fine gems and minerals, and was directly involved in the in-person acquisition and importation of superb specimens and stones from Myanmar (Burma).
