Design : Classic Step Cut
Origin : Brazil
Treatments : Irradiated
Weight : 12.8 carats
Clarity : Eye Clean

Comments : This spectacular gemstone is all about COLOUR! This is the blue that aquamarine wishes it could be... if this was an aquamarine then you would be paying a small fortune for it. The colour is rich and a very fine blue... in person it is truly devine. It catches the eye across the room and looks fantastic in the Classic Step Cut (ie. Emerald Cut) design. As soon as I saw this piece of rough I knew it had to be cut in this design as this design is all about showing off the colour of a gem. This is an exceptionally fine gemstone!

Stone : Natural Blue Topaz
Cut By : Doug Menadue, 2009
Item : #104
Design : OctaDome #8 - The Moroccan (Doug Menadue)
Origin : O'Briens' Creek, Mt Surprise, North Queensland, Australia
Treatments : None
Weight : 11.6 carats
Clarity : Eye Clean
Size : 13mm
Price : $840 AUD
Comments : A beautiful O'Briens Ck natural blue topaz. It is a nice soft blue and is cut in one of my octagon dome designs. If you are familiar with those amazing colourful geometric Moroccan tile designs that are found on walls of buildings and fountains and so forth, then you'll see the influence here in this gemstone design. It is a big stone and has lots of brilliance and flash... something special! Remember, all the topaz from O'Brien's Ck has been hand dug. No bulldozers have been used in the production of this gemstone.
