A cluster of sharp biterminated crystals of Topaz from Mexico, with red color from included hematite (typical from this locality). The largest measures 4 cm in length. Partially water-clear you can see areas of typical rhyolite "sand" included and embedded-on the crystals, they have a very fine luster and this termination shape is uncommon for the locality, perhaps the most well known Topaz ones from Mexico.
