I get the feeling bicolored topaz is rare. What will you do with them?
If your friend covets them, how did you manage to snag them?

Those are very beautiful. He may not be a friend any more LOL. Seriously though, I bet he gladly gave you them, knowing you'll keep them for yourself.

Nice. I've only seen bicolor one time in my life. 3.5 carats going for close to 10 gs. I picked up some red beryl from the guy and he offered up the bicolor. I kinda chuckled at the price as it was a stretch for me to swing the 40 bucks for the red specimins. Sweet stuff u got there
