14.86 Ct. Swiss Blue Topaz from Brazil

This 14.86 carat cushion shape Swiss blue topaz from Brazil, offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, stands apart from the typical market selection for its rare combination of size, cut, and clarity. Measuring 15.49 x 13.24 x 8.81 mm, this transparent, faceted gem displays a medium color intensity that is vivid without overpowering, making it more versatile than many smaller or overly saturated stones that dominate online listings. The mixed brilliant cut used here blends brilliant style facets on the crown with carefully proportioned pavilion facets, producing a dynamic play of light that alternates between bright white brilliance and deep blue flashes. Because the girdle and facet junctions are precisely aligned and the polish is rated excellent, light enters the table, is refracted through the pavilion, and is returned as strong scintillation and lively dispersion, delivering more perceptible sparkle per carat than poorly cut or shallow topaz pieces commonly available.

Compared to mass market alternatives, this gem benefits from a clarity grade of very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means it retains exceptional transparency while offering a natural character that many collectors prefer over fully flawless treated stones. The mixed brilliant arrangement enhances both fire and brilliance, making internal features visually minimized and producing crisp facet contrast that is especially desirable in cushion shapes. The stone has been irradiated to achieve its Swiss blue tone, a stable enhancement widely accepted in the trade, and its Brazilian origin speaks to a provenance known for clean, well formed topaz crystals. For buyers seeking a statement centerpiece for a ring or pendant, or a superior calibrated option for bespoke designs, this topaz offers better value and uniqueness than many smaller or poorly faceted options, because its proportions, finish, and cutting philosophy maximize light reflection and color consistency.
