Description
Outstanding and unusual, this GEMMY Danburite is excellent for the species, but certainly exceptional for Burma. This crystal has an amber color, complex termination, and is gemmy throughout. The luster ranges from good on the prism faces to superb on the termination. This is an aesthetic and quite uncommon thumbnail that looks rather more like an imperial topaz than a danburite! From a rare find here..
