Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent old time topaz and smoky quartz crystal cluster from this historic Russian locale!!! This old time gem consists of a cluster of
bright, gemmy topaz crystals in aesthetic combination with numerous gem-clear smoky quartz crystals!!! It is difficult to
capture in the pictures just how fine this specimen is, however in person it is a real stunner!!! The topaz crystals are razor sharp,
bright, glassy, and gemmy throughout!!! The topaz crystals range in size up to 2cm!!! The smoky quartz crystals have a gorgeous smoky hue and lively gem clarity!!! Both the
topaz crystals and the smoky quartz crystals are complete, pristine, and undamaged!!! This specimen is very showy and
dynamic in person!!! Classic, old time gem material from this historic locale!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
This specimen is from the collection of Tony Nikischer!!! We just acquired
the 6000+ specimen PERSONAL collection of Tony Nikischer and there are going to be some very exciting
minerals to come in the upcoming days and weeks!!! Prior to the Nikischer collection this specimen was
originally from the collection of Florence Mecke (acquired from the late 1930's until the 1970's)!!!
