London Blue Bezel Topaz Ring

According to a well-known gem and jewelry industry magazine, "Colored Stone", since the early 2000s, blue topaz has become the second most popular gemstone in the world (sapphire is consistently number one). Topaz popularity is certainly not surprising. Topaz is a very hard material - 8 on the Mohs - and blue topaz is a very pretty stone that is available in a wide range of vivid hues with a striking luster. It is also a very affordable gem when compared to the price per carat of similar colored gemstones such as aqaumarine.
