Bi-colored Topaz ex. Dick Heck Coll.

Item Description

Very pretty, gemmy and lustrous, blocky orthorhombic, bi-colored prisms of topaz are very aesthetically clustered on volcanic tuff matrix. These specimens are perhaps the most well known topazes from Mexico, due to their easily recognizable form and strong reddish-brown color. The topaz is 1.9 cm and is doubly terminated. These are certainly unique in my experience, and very attractive, even in smaller specimens such as this one. Classic material from the Dick Heck Collection.
