2.32 Ct. Topaz from Burma (Myanmar)

As a member of The Natural Gemstone Company sales team, I am pleased to present this exceptional 2.32 carat marquise Swiss blue topaz, an ideal and distinctive choice for an engagement ring. The stone measures 12.85 x 6.46 x 3.92 mm, and its marquise silhouette delivers a striking face up presence that elongates the finger and creates a classic yet contemporary profile. The mixed brilliant cut maximizes light return, producing scintillation and lively sparkle that rivals more costly stones when set for daily wear. With a clarity graded as very, very slightly included when examined at eye level, this topaz appears essentially eye clean, which means the surface brilliance and internal sparkle remain uninterrupted, making it a perfect focal point for a hand made engagement setting that emphasizes light and form.

Compared to diamonds and other blue gemstones on the market, this Swiss blue topaz offers notable advantages in value and versatility. For the same budget, a 2.32 carat topaz will present a much larger, more dramatic center than many diamonds, delivering immediate visual impact without the premium of carbon gemstones. Against aquamarine, which often shows a paler hue, this medium intense Swiss blue provides richer color saturation that reads lively from every angle, offering more personality in an engagement piece. Compared to tanzanite or sapphire, outstanding clarity combined with excellent polish gives this topaz an unmatched crispness for its price bracket, while its color remains consistent and attractive after professional treatment. The irradiation enhancement used to produce this Swiss blue tone is a stable, industry standard process that yields uniform color, and when disclosed honestly, it allows us to offer a stone of exceptional beauty and transparency at a much more accessible price point.

Beyond pure cost comparison, the marquise shape and precise proportions of this gemstone make it uniquely suited to bespoke and heirloom quality engagement designs. The elongated table and balanced length to width ratio create an optical illusion of greater carat weight, so the 2.32 carat weight presents with confident presence without requiring an oversized mounting. The mixed brilliant cut combines the scintillation of a brilliant with the elegant facets of traditional cuts, so you get intense fire and a lively play of light that is particularly effective under everyday lighting. The excellent polish enhances facet definition, allowing clean reflections that outshine many stones in the same price tier. For couples seeking an engagement ring that diverges from the mainstream, but still delivers enduring glamour and daily wearability, this Swiss blue topaz is an intelligent and beautiful selection.

Practical considerations for the long term make this stone a thoughtful engagement choice, and we at The Natural Gemstone Company are happy to guide you through setting and care options. Topaz ranks at eight on the Mohs scale, which means it is sufficiently hard for daily wear, though care should be taken because topaz has perfect cleavage, and impacts at certain angles can cause damage. Our recommendations include protective bezel or partial bezel settings, secure prong placement, and occasional professional cleaning to preserve luster. The origin of this gem is Burma Myanmar, which contributes a traceable and interesting provenance, and we are transparent about its irradiation enhancement so you may make an informed choice. For those seeking distinction, ethical sourcing, and excellent value, this 2.32 carat marquise Swiss blue topaz combines classic elegance, eye catching color, and intelligent craftsmanship, and it stands out as a superior option for an engagement ring that will be cherished for years to come.
