Topaz
Rs.2,500.00 - Rs.10,500.00
Topaz is a hard silicate mineral composed of aluminum and fluorine, known for its wide range of natural and treated colors, including colorless, blue, yellow, brown, pink, and red. While naturally appearing in golden-brown or yellow, its color can be altered by heat or irradiation, and it's used in jewelry and decorative objects. Its clarity, hardness, and varied colors make it a popular, durable gemstone, despite its perfect cleavage, which can make it prone to chipping.
Product Details
Mineral Type: Topaz is a silicate mineral with the chemical formula Al₂SiO₄(F, OH)₂.
Hardness: It ranks 8 on the Mohs scale of hardness, making it a durable and hard gemstone, second only to sapphire and ruby among common gemstones.
Color: Pure topaz is colorless. However, trace elements can give it natural colors like golden-brown or yellow. Treatment (heat or radiation) is often used to produce colors like blue, pink, red, and purple.
