The pic pretty much says it all. This is a shockingly huge, GEMMY, READ-THROUGH topaz crystal of total clarity. In person, it has even less veils than you think you see in the pic, and is quite glassy and brilliant. It is 3-dimensional and, except for the tiniest issues, is basically pristine and complete all around save for the one irregular lower face to the right side of the rightmost pic, where it is cleaved at the base. It weighs in at a whopping 4 pounds-plus or mass of 1847 grams. This is an IMPRESSIVE gem crystal, notable for its transparency, and will impress both collectors and laymen! 11 x 10.5 x 8.4 cm
