A magnificent, water-clear and very nearly pristine "silver" topaz with exceedingly complex crystal faces from Klein Spitzkoppe, Namibia. Three photos highlight the complexity of the crystal and the last two photos show the amazing light refraction qualities of the crystal faces. Topaz of this quality seldom is available at auction. Ex Dave Mansfield Collection (Sid Pieters' son-in-law) 4.0 x 3.5 x 2.7 cm
