Topaz is derived its name from the Sanskrit word tapas, meaning ‘fire’. Imperial topaz is prized for its golden orange to pinkish hues, water-like transparency and superb lustre that give the stones a great deal of life and charm. This ring is set with a classic golden topaz, its exceptional size, clarity and colour saturation easily deserving of the ‘Imperial topaz’ title. Simply needing nothing else, it has been set in a plain yellow gold mount to create a spectacular display of this historic stone, in an elegant and wearable fashion.
