Item Description
Here we have a classic light sherry colored Topaz with Quartz from Pakistan. This area has long produced some of the finest Topaz specimens in recent memory from the standpoint of color, size, and gemminess. The main crystal on this specimen measures 3.1 cm, and is undamaged. It's notably sharp and glassy with a light sherry color, but the most important aspect is that it's NEARLY 100% WATER CLEAR. The associated Quartz, black Schorl and smaller Topaz crystals makes for a nice touch. NO REPAIRS. You don't see nearly as many of these pieces from Pakistan on the market as compared to a few years ago. Please note that these crystals can fade to colorless when exposed to sunlight, or possibly any light, so it should be kept out of the light if possible to help retain its color. Priced in the inventory at $3000. BETTER IN PERSON!!
