Topaz var. Pink Topaz

A 1.6 cm tall, gemmy prismatic light cobalt pink terminated Topaz crystal stands vertically on a light grey matrix traversed by delicate white veins. This beautiful miniature is from Katlang in the North-West Frontier Province of Pakistan, a region of breath taking scenery and a locality best known for its fine Topaz.  This is a near-perfect crystal with a superb termination and displays ideally on its matrix.  Interestingly, photos of the collecting site show a massive rock face which appears as an exact up-scaled copy of this specimen’s matrix!  A delightful gem Topaz from Pakistan.
