Buyer's guide

Topaz

Each topaz color has its own rules. Imperial, blue plus yellow are judged separately.

What to look for

Color

Red is under half a percent of the finds. Imperial topaz is highly prized plus very rare.

Clarity

Blue topaz is almost always eye clean. Rarer colors can show more.

Cut

Found in every shape, from ovals to designer fantasy cuts.

Carat

Blue topaz costs little more in large sizes. Rare colors climb fast.
