12.52 ct Blue Topaz-Blue - Pear

This 12.52-carat topaz is cut as a pear measuring 14.4 x 9.4 x 6.9 mm, with a blue body color, sourced from Brazil.

Topaz is a hard, brilliant gem species; its blues are the best known, but it runs from colorless through the coveted imperial oranges. Brazil has been one of the most prolific colored-gemstone sources in the world for a century, and still turns up new material on a regular basis. Its color was brought up by irradiation, a standard and fully disclosed treatment for this material.

This is a center-stone-grade gemstone with a character of its own, chosen rather than settled for. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and photographs it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
