3.74 Ct. Precious Topaz from Brazil

This pear shaped golden yellow precious topaz of 3.74 carats from Brazil is a statement of refined brilliance and exceptional value from The Natural Gemstone Company, with dimensions 13.81 by 7.39 by 4.77 millimeters, a mixed brilliant cut, and an excellent polish. The mixed brilliant faceting is engineered to maximize light return, producing lively scintillation and a lively play of brightness that outshines many common yellow gemstones. Compared with citrine, which often shows a softer glow and can appear cloudy when cut for size, this topaz displays cleaner, crisper flashes due to its very slightly included clarity when evaluated at eye level, and due to the precision of its polish. Compared with yellow sapphires, which can have deeper saturation but come at a significantly higher price, this topaz offers a medium intense golden hue that balances warmth and brightness, making it ideal for jewelry that needs to look luminous without pushing cost into the high end. The heat treatment applied to enhance the tone is a standard, stable and accepted practice for golden topaz, delivering a consistent color that remains vivid under everyday wear, while the excellent polish ensures every facet edge catches light with minimal light leakage.

Beyond color and cut, what truly sets this Brazilian topaz apart is the combination of optical performance and practical wearability. The mixed brilliant cut gives it more scintillation than a simple step cut, and more controlled fire than some lower refractive index quartz alternatives, so it achieves a sparkle that reads as lively to the eye in both direct and diffused light. The gem sits comfortably in designs where pear shape elegance is desired, offering both the elongating silhouette for rings and the pendant friendly profile for necklaces. For customers seeking a golden yellow stone that competes visually with pricier yellows while offering better clarity than mass market alternatives, this topaz represents a superior choice, and demonstrates the careful sourcing and cutting standards you expect from The Natural Gemstone Company. Whether set in gold or platinum, this gem will deliver a memorable presence, a satisfying return of light, and a versatile warmth that elevates both contemporary and classic designs.
