Description/Interesting Notes: An absolutely amazing example of rare natural PURPLE topaz from Brazil!!! Let me start off by saying that this is an incredible specimen that exhibits an unusually rich purple color that is seldom seen in this species!!! This specimen consists of a sharp, lustrous crystal of rich purple topaz ...that exhibits translucent to gemmy clarity and brilliant glassy luster!!! The crystal is completely terminated and displays gorgeously all around!!! Although there is some edgewear on a back edge and some minute nicks, this specimen is overall in terrific condition and is simply stunning in person!!! This specimen is truly an exceptional example of this very rare material!!! This specimen is from the collection of the famed Rock Currier and retains its original label as well!!! A portion of the Currier collection was offered in Tucson for the first time and I was literally the first in line (woke up at 5am!) - although just a small fraction of the collection was available I was able to snatch up a handful of exciting specimens - don't miss out!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
