Crimson Topaz showcases a vibrant, deep red color, primarily achieved through enhancement processes. Natural topaz, often colorless or pale, undergoes treatments like irradiation and/or coating to produce the desired crimson shade. This treatment results in a gemstone with striking visual appeal, offering a more accessible alternative to naturally rare red topaz. While its beauty is enhanced, it's important to recognize the treated nature of Crimson Topaz, and to take proper care when cleaning the stones. Due to the coating that is often used, harsh chemicals, and abrasive cleaners should be avoided. Warm soapy water is the recommended method for cleaning these gems.
