The specimen came to me via Edward Rosenzweig who obtained it from Larry Conklin, who himself received it in trade from Paul Heise. This specimen dates back to the late 1800's or early 1900's. Sharp pale blue topaz on matrix with schorl and quartz. The 1.5 cm topaz is water-clear with a complex termination. 6.1 x 4.8 x 2.8 cm (also see in Photo ID: 172337, now in personal collection). #T48
