Topaz, fluorite

Here we have a nonclassic association of light sherry colored topaz with beautiful contrasting green fluorite. Tajikistan has long produced some of the finest topaz specimens in recent memory, and to find them with any kind of associations is remarkable. The topaz crystal on this specimen is very sharp, gemmy and glassy with a medium sherry color, but the accenting almost gemmy green fluorite crystal really compliments them well. Most crystal faces are clean and undamaged, but two corners are bruised. The termination of the crystal is chipped.
