Excellent, completely GEMMY, clear Topaz from the Iron Quadrangle in Minas Gerais. The habit is very complex, and the faces are smooth and lustrous. There are numerous little rubbing points on the crystal, but they do not affect the glistening look of Topaz. It is so clear, and so reflective, that the camera just doesn't do it justice. This region in Brazil has produced some of the best Topaz in the world, and at 35 grams, this gem is well represents the area.
