0.68 Ct. White Topaz from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This white topaz is a precisely measured 0.68 carat round, with dimensions 5.99 by 5.95 by 3.87 millimeters, cut in a faceted mixed brilliant style to balance scintillation and light return. The mixed brilliant design combines a finely executed brilliant facet pattern on the crown with modified pavilion facets, creating strong fire and lively scintillation across the table and facets. With an overall depth of approximately 64.7 percent the stone presents a substantial face up area that maximizes apparent size without sacrificing optical performance. The colorless color intensity produces a clean, neutral palette that enhances white light dispersion, while the excellent polish and symmetrical faceting ensure crisp facet junctions and mirror like reflections. Clarity is graded slightly included at eye level, meaning small natural inclusions are present under direct inspection, but the cutter has strategically oriented facets to mask these features and preserve overall transparency, resulting in a visually bright and lively gem. This topaz is untreated, no enhancement, and its documented origin is Ceylon, Sri Lanka, a source known for well crystallized material that responds favorably to precision cutting.

The combination of a near six millimeter diameter and high transparency makes this specimen ideal for a statement piece, whether set as a solitaire ring, a prominent pendant, or the central gem in a halo design. At 0.68 carat the gem has a strong face up presence when mounted, and the mixed brilliant faceting amplifies movement and flash, ensuring the stone reads larger in hand or when viewed from a distance. The slight inclusions do not detract from its use in high visibility settings because they are minimized by the cutting style and the excellent polish. For clients seeking a durable and eye catching centerpiece with a bright white aesthetic, this Ceylon white topaz offers exceptional value and performance.
