Colored Gemstones Like Topaz Make Beautiful Fashion Gold Rings

Topaz is a wonderful, durable (wearable) gemstone. Traditionally, precious topaz was birthstone for November and the Zodiac birthstone for Sagittarius. The interesting thing is that most people have never seen a good quality precious topaz. Most retail jewelry stores might carry one or two during November. Precious topaz comes in colors ranging from yellow to a golden orange color and can really quite exceptional. Most jewelry stores carry citrine as the “alternate” birthstone for November. It has a very similar golden orange color. But more on citrine later.

Topaz Gemstones

These days, topaz of any color can be used at the birthstone for November. And what a wonderful range of colors – blue, orange, pink, green, brown, red and more. Imperial topaz can be an exquisite reddish orange color and those of top gem quality are rare in the largest sizes. In times gone by, topaz was said to dispel sadness, anger and nocturnal fears. Additionally it was supposed to warn it wearer of poisons and protect the wearer from sudden death. Some say, it is makes men handsome. I’ll believe the dispelling of sadness, anger and nocturnal fears. Don’t think I would want to test if it really warns the wearer of poisons or sudden death. I think that comes under the heading of “don’t try this anywhere” caveat.
