Description:A gorgeous, 4.8 cm, topaz crystal is front and center on this striking and impressive CABINET combination piece from Dassu, Pakistan. The upper 3.1 cm of the topaz crystal is absolutely water-clear and is a beautiful champagne color. The albite/cleavelandite matrix hosts two more gemmy and lustrous topaz crystals and a nice scattering of smoky quartz crystals. The isolated, glassy, smoky on the left is 3.2 cm. The super topaz crystal has one repair at the base of the gemmy area and one of the other topaz crystals has a modest bit of bruising. Bruising is noted to some of the smokies. This remains a large and dramatic combination specimen, that is highlighted by a super gem topaz crystal.
