Item Description
London Blue Topaz has been around since the 1980s. These amazing stones made a huge splash when they were introduced on the market. These stones start out as colorless Topaz which is irradiated to create the rich blue color. This treatment method is well known in the gem trade and is not at all frowned upon, provided that people KNOW that they're buying a treated gem. The color in this material is what attracts collectors, as natural blue Topaz is typically not easy to find. There are actually very few gems in the world with this color and this gem has a great deep blue hue. The is also virtually eye clean with an "Oval Step" cut. It would fit right into a pre-made setting for a piece of jewelry based upon the near calibrated dimensions.
