Featuring an intriguing style, this Swiss-blue topaz sugarloaf cabochon offers a square shape with rounded, pyramid-like sides. The concave edges of this gemstone form cleaner facets and provide a heavier look to the gem. Use it individually, in a pair to make earrings or match it with gemstones of similar or complementary colors for complex designs. One of the most popular topaz gemstones, Swiss-blue topaz is an electric, vivid blue said to rival the incredible hues of the sea. Topaz is one of the birthstones for November. A hard, usually transparent aluminum silicate gem material, topaz has a brilliance that rivals more expensive gemstones, making it an economical alternative to more costly gems. An "8" on the Mohs scale, topaz is tough and durable, ideal for all types of jewelry. Topaz forms in a orthorhombic structure with crystals that are usually prismatic. Pure topaz is colorless; impurities give the gemstone color. Gemstones can appear in a range of colors, with natural pink being the rarest. Most topaz colors are heat-treated or irradiated to enhance their color. In folklore, this gemstone is believed to dispel sadness and fear, to ward off poisons and to reverse infertility.
