Sky-Blue Topaz Teardrop Briolette
This sky-blue topaz briolette features a classic teardrop shape and is vertically half-drilled, making it an excellent choice for custom pendant and earring designs. It’s fully rounded and faceted over its entire surface, giving it an attractive light-catching quality that looks great when used for necklaces, drops and earrings, either individually or combined with other shapes and styles of beads. Use jeweler’s epoxy to secure the briolette on a peg mounting. One of the most popular topaz gemstones, sky-blue topaz is a light-to-medium blue that mimics a clear sky. The stone is naturally flawless in most cases. A hard, usually transparent aluminum silicate gem material, topaz is an "8" on the Mohs scale; because it is tough and durable, topaz is ideal for all types of jewelry. Topaz forms in an orthorhombic structure with crystals that are usually prismatic. Pure topaz is colorless; impurities in the stones give them the colors they present.
