Topaz Blue - Tumble
£1.50Price
Blue topaz is one of the accepted modern birthstones for December.
Topaz is a hard stone with a range of natural colors, with some colors being more valuable. In fact, the value of some topaz is based on their depth of color, not their carat weight! This aluminum silicate stone contains up to 20% fluorine or water (which determines its color) and often grows into large crystals. The largest topaz, now in the Museum of Natural History in New York, weighs 600 pounds!
- Country of Origin: Brazil.
- Dimensions: 7mm to 12mm x 5mm (may vary)
- Weight: 1g to 2.3g.
- Price are per/stone.
Because it cleaves (splits) easily, topaz should never be cleaned in a steamer or ultrasonic cleaner. It should also be protected from sudden changes in temperature and from all acids. Keep blue topaz out of the sun, as the stone is easily bleached by heat and UV light.
