NOVEMBER BIRTHSTONE - TOPAZ

Hello everyone!

Hope you're doing well in this cold and rainy November :) Time is going fast and we're already in the new month with new birthstone!

Topaz is the birthstone of November. Let we explore more about this fantastic gem!

The name of this gemstone probably derived from the Zabargad island in the Red Sea – former name of this island was Topazos. Also some believe the word "topaz" comes from the "Sanskrit" word "tapas", which means fire. Topaz is available in many colours but the golden yellow is on top of the list.

Where is Topaz found?

Brazil is the top production place for topaz, specially in the area of Minas Gerais with city Ouro Preto, where so-called "imperial topaz" is mined for more then two centuries. Today other mining locations for topaz are Namibia, Nigeria, Madagascar, Mexico, Myanmar, Sri Lanka and the United States. 

Topaz is associated with strength, affection and love. In our Birthstone Crystal Collection you can find unique pendant necklace made from high-quality round crystal in the colour of Topaz Gold Yellow.
