Blue Topaz Saucer Bead

This blue topaz saucer bead features a pale blue color. Saucer beads are ideal a spacers between larger round or special shaped beads and are great components in drop and dangle designs. Each bead is hand-cut; size will vary slightly. A hard, usually transparent aluminum silicate gem material, topaz is an "8" on the Mohs scale; because it is tough and durable, topaz is ideal for all types of jewelry. Topaz forms in an orthorhombic structure with crystals that are usually prismatic. Pure topaz is colorless; impurities in the stones give them the colors they present.
