Topaz on Quartz and Clevelandite
Wenshan County, Wenshan Autonomous Prefecture
Yunnan Province, China
7.8 x 6.4 x 4.7 CM (cabinet)
price: $440
new year 2021
Several Quartz crystals are clustered around a single gemmy Topaz crystal set on Clevelandite. The Topaz has some lightly frosted faces and others are glass clear, transparent and very lustrous. The color is a light sherry hue that looks slightly pinkish in some light. From finds in 2004 in Yunnan Province in China, we have not seen such good pegmatite minerals from this region for several years. In good condition overall as seen there is a crack in the Topaz and a chip is noted on one face that is not very evident or distracting. A really choice Chinese Topaz.
