A fine, sharp, equant, 285-gram topaz crystal from the classic Mimoso do Sul district, with a symmetry typical of these old classics. It is water clear, and transparent, with good glassy luster. It is almost pristine, with just one real ding of consequence on the lower front edge, and a few small bits of edge wear otherwise. A fine specimen - not so many topaz crystals form such a distinct, textbook habit that characterizes a locale so well, as this style. Ex. Gene Meieran Collection.
