A translucent but glassy and sharply formed topaz crystal with a wedge termination rises 1.7 cm above a microcline crystal matrix. A little brother topaz, about 5 mm, sits to the side of the big brother. On the same face as the topaz crystal we also find a few platy albite (variety cleavelandite) 'rosette' crystal clusters, reaching about 1.2 in size. Self standing as shown. A few very tiny rubs to the cleavelandite clusters but overall condition is quite nice for the price.
