Genuine Topaz
The name topaz is believed to have come from the ancient Sanskrit word tapas, meaning fire. Topaz was thought to bring love, affection and virtue. If worn all the time, topaz was thought to bring friendship and ensure fidelity. November’s birthstone, topaz also is the recommended gift for a 23rd wedding anniversary. Topaz is found in nature in a variety of transparent colors — from colorless to orange, pink, peach, tan, beige, golden, brown, and shades of yellow and green. The most common variety is blue. A durable gem at 8 on the Moh’s scale, topaz is primarily found in Brazil.
