Description/Interesting Notes:
A classic, old time example of topaz after orthoclase from Germany!!! This specimen consists of a single crystal of orthoclase that
has been completely replaced by topaz!!! The crystal still retains the characteristic form of the orthoclase crystal however, upon
close inspection with a loupe one can find tiny, submillimeter crystal faces of topaz!!! Rare, old time material!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
