- birthstone for December
- 14mm rose cut* blue topaz
- natural, untreated gems
- length and metal options
these beautiful faceted organic EGG shapes, each one unique are custom cut just for us and we are in LOVE! Double faceted.
this batch of blue topaz was appealing to us BECAUSE it was included and imperfect - they are not heat treated so just as they came out of the earth - the inclusions give it character!
14mm is a smidge over 1/2"
NOTES
*What is a rose cut? Originally developed in the 1500's to highlight gemstones which then, were mostly seen and worn in candlelight - they were round with a flat base and a faceted top rising to form an apex with 3 facets or more. This created gems with more brilliance than seen before (though by todays faceting standards, it is comparatively less so). The rose cut is making a comeback, and expanded into different shapes as well. With so many unique gems, the appeal of this vintage cut is a wonderful and simple approach to appreciate the beauty of the stones.There are no reviews yet.
