Item Description

A classic, old-time Topaz from the famous Xanda Mine in Brazil. The crystal has a slender habit, with very smooth, lustrous faces on virtually side and that classic GEMMY ice blue color. This is not treated or heated in any way, this is fine quality natural blue Topaz. Complete-all-around and in good condition, save a few nicks, and a separation mark on the base where it was either connected to another crystal or removed from the pocket wall. The piece weighs 140.79 grams. If the piece were perfect, I could see it retailing for around $2,500, but because of the damage it's obviously less.
