topaz

What to Look for
COLOR IS THE MOST IMPORTANT QUALITY FACTOR FOR TOPAZ
Red is one of the most sought-after topaz colors and represents less than one-half of 1 percent of facet-grade material found. The color the trade calls imperial topaz is highly prized and very rare. Many dealers insist that a stone must show a reddish pleochroic color to be called imperial topaz.


CLARITY REFERS TO THE INCLUSIONS
Faceted blue topaz is almost always free of eye visible inclusions. Other more rare colors like imperial and pink may show inclusions more often and still be valuable due to the color’s rarity.

CUT IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTORS IN APPEARANCE
Topaz is cut in a wide variety of shapes and cutting styles. Production includes all the standard gem shapes such as ovals, pears, rounds, emerald cuts, cushion cuts, triangle cuts, and marquise shapes, as well as designer-inspired fantasy shapes.


CARAT WEIGHT ALLOWS FOR PRECISE MEASUREMENTS
Standard topaz cuts for the jewelry industry include a wide range of shapes, sizes and weights. Blue topaz rises very little in per carat price as the size increases. Imperial topaz on the other hand rises in per carat price dramatically as size increases.
