Our Product Story
Topaz, symbol of love and affection, is the birthstone for November. It is one of nature's most wonderful yet least-known gems. The term "topaz" is often applied to citrine or smoky quartz, but true topaz is very beautiful and versatile. Topaz occurs not only in the transparent yellow, yellow brown, orange-y brown, and pinky brown colors most popularly associated with it, but it is also found in a very light to medium red, very light to light blue (often the result of treatment, although it does occur naturally), very light green, light greenish yellow, violet, and colorless. Topaz is a hard, brilliant stone with a fine color range, but it is much rarer and much more expensive than the stones commonly sold as topaz.
Vermeil (pronounced ver-may) is a combination of precious metals. The inside core is pure sterling silver. The outer coating is of solid, finely crafted 14kt gold. These two precious metals are combined to produce long-lasting jewelry that looks, feels, and endures exactly like pure gold.
