Topaz with Quartz and Albite

Item Description

A lovely association piece from Pakistan. For a few decades now, Dassu has been providing collectors with some of the finest Topaz specimens from any locality in the world in terms of color, crystal form, quality size and gemminess. The attractive, and fine quality small cabinet piece hosts an excellent, very sharp, rather gemmy, highly lustrous, soft golden-sherry colored prismatic crystal of Topaz associated with attractive, slightly smoky colored Quartz crystals plus "flower"-like groups of white bladed Albite (var: Cleavelandite). The Topaz crystal is actually doubly-terminated, and both ends are smooth, glistening and undamaged. It measures 2.7 cm. I encourage you to check out the video for this listing to get full effect of the piece. You don't see nearly as many of these pieces from Pakistan on the market as compared to a few years ago, especially in matrix examples, and a highly displayable and good quality piece like this is certainly desirable from this well-known locale in the high mountains of Pakistan. Please note that these Topaz crystals can fade to colorless when exposed to sunlight, so it should be kept out of the light if possible to help retain its color.
