How To Take Care Of Topaz
Topaz is a hard, brilliant, and transparent gemstone noted for its beautiful luster and strong color. Best known as a golden-yellow gem, topaz is also available in many colors such a blue, green, orange, pink, red brown, clear and the lovely sherry color known as imperial topaz.
Although topaz is hard, it is susceptible to breaking and cleaves easily. So it should be protected from sharp blows and sudden temperature changes.
Handle topaz carefully and clean in warm soapy water with a soft brush. Avoid ultrasonic and steam cleaning. Because topaz is harder than many other gems, store it separately to protect other jewelry.
