CLASSIFICATION: Hand Faceted White Topaz. ORIGIN: The Ural Mountains. Russia. 19th Century. SIZE: Diameter: 6mm. Depth: 4mm. All measurements approximate. WEIGHT: Approximately 1.80 carats(the pair) NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: In the ancient world topaz came from Topazion. An Island in the Red Sea now called Zabargad. Topaz was thought to protect against evil and to the ancient Greeks and Persians, it was believed to be effective as a talisman which would protect against evil enchantments. The Greeks also believed that wearing topaz would bestow upon the wearer great physical strength, dispel sadness and strengthen the wearer’s intellect. To the ancient Egyptians, the sparkle of topaz symbolized"Ra" their sun god. Topaz was significant not only within the religion of Ancient Egypt, but within ancient Christianity as well. There are many references to"topaz" in the Bible. Topaz was one of the stones selected by Aaron for his priestly breastplate. To ancient Christians topaz was regarded as a symbol of uprightness and virtue. Used for centuries in Russia as a diamond simulant. Here are two nice, eye clean, white topaz semi-precious gemstones. The gemstones were hand crafted and faceted by a 19th century Russian artisan, part of an heritage renown for the production of the elaborate gemstones and jewelry of the Czars of Medieval, Renaissance, and Victorian Russia. The faceted cut is a coarse precursor to what eventually became known in the industry as a“trillion cut” a three sided shape resembling a pyramid with rounded corners. The trillion cut is very popular contemporarily with not only with topaz, but also sapphire, aquamarine, ruby, amethyst, and peridot. While not absolutely flawless. These are
