Imperial Topaz (rare pink color)

Item Description

The deposits around Ouro Preto have produced what are some of the most colorful and widely recognized Topaz in the world. The color of these pieces earned them the name "Imperial", and is oft deserved. Topaz is one of those gems that gets darker with larger stones, so little stones don't have the saturation that a larger stone typically has. This gem is a very attractive Imperial Topaz with a rarely seen pink color. The stone has an "Emerald" cut and is slightly included. This stone was difficult to photograph, and in person it looks MUCH better than the photos might indicate. These gems are becoming harder and harder to obtain since so very few reach the open market.
