Topaz, a gemstone celebrated for its brilliance and diverse color range, is a popular choice for jewelry. While often associated with golden yellow, topaz occurs in various hues, including colorless, blue, pink, brown, and orange-red. With a hardness of 8 on the Mohs scale, it's a relatively durable gemstone. Imperial topaz, with its rich orange-pink tones, is particularly prized. Blue topaz, often enhanced by irradiation, is widely available and popular. Known for its clarity and vitreous luster, topaz brings a touch of elegance and versatility to any collection.
