London Blue Topaz

A blue gemstone with good hardness and brilliance tends to be rare and fairly expensive. This is especially true of the darker blue gems, such as sapphire, tanzanite, and spinel.

It is not surprising then that blue topaz has become one of the top-selling gems in the jewelry business. Blue topaz is unusual in offering excellent hardness (8 on the Mohs scale).

Blue topaz can be found in both lighter and darker tones, usually known in the trade as sky blue topaz, Swiss blue topaz, and London blue topaz. As in the case of other blue gems, the more saturated blues tend to have a higher value. So in topaz, it is the London blue that usually regarded as the most valuable

Topaz is currently found in Brazil, Nigeria, Australia, Myanmar, and Mexico.

SILVER

A malleable material, which can often be found – along with copper, lead, and gold – in rocks. It is most commonly found in Mexico, Canada, Peru, and the United States. The most outstanding feature of silver is its lustre, which – when untarnished – can give a brilliant white shade. In ancient times, silver was valued more highly than gold. Its name comes from the Anglo-Saxon word Seolfer but it’s also related to the German word Silber and the Dutch word Zilfer. Its chemical symbol, Ag, derives from the Latin word for silver, Argentum. Sterling silver contains 92.5% silver with the remainder being copper and a nominal amount of other base metal.

GOLD

The most malleable and ductile of all metals. Due to its softness, gold is often alloyed with other base metals. The carat is the indicator of the amount of gold present in an item/piece, with 9ct being the lowest amount and 24ct being the highest. Gold is of yellow colour when in mass, although when finely divided it can be found in shades of black, ruby and even purple. It is found in seawater, although even in these modern times, no economic process has been designed to extract it from its source. The primary use of gold throughout the world still remains currency, considered so valuable that we measure all other values by it.
