About Topaz
Topaz occurs in a wide color range — from colorless to imperial orange-pink (the most valuable), as well as blue, yellow, and brown. Most commercial blue topaz is colorless natural topaz that has been irradiated to produce the vivid sky, Swiss, or London blue tones. Topaz scores 8 on Mohs (very durable for daily wear) and is the November birthstone (alongside citrine) and the 4th- and 23rd-anniversary gems.
About 14K Yellow Gold
14K yellow gold is 58.3% pure gold blended with copper and silver — the most popular fine-jewelry karat in the US for good reason. It delivers a rich, recognizably warm yellow tone while remaining hard enough for daily wear, holding diamonds and gemstones securely without wearing thin. 14K resizes cleanly and refinishes easily, and it carries strong heirloom value. For most clients balancing color depth, durability, and price, 14K yellow is the right answer.
