November Birthstone - Stunning Topaz

"Who first comes to this world below

"Who first comes to this world below

In dreary November's fog and snow,

Should prize the topaz amber hue,

Emblem of friends and lovers true. ."

Topaz is the birthstone for November and the suggested anniversary gemstone for the 4th, 19th or 23rd year of marriage. .

The November birthstone of the Topaz is considered to be the birthstone for Scorpio (The sign of the Scorpion) and relate to those born between November 22 - December 21. The Zodiac sign of Scorpio also responds to Beryl, Amethyst, Aquamarine, Tourmaline and opal.

The name "Topaz" (Topaze French, Topas German, Topacio Spanish) is derived from the Greek "Topazos" or "to seek" (the name of an island in the Red Sea). .

Topaz is found in India, Brazil, Mexico, United States, Burma (now Myanmar), Madagascar, Russia, Namibia, Zimbabwe and Nigeria. .

Although topaz is one of the most gorgeous stones, it has never had the same popularity as many other semi precious stones in recent years. It ranges in colour from white to shades of brown, pink and blue - the most valuable colour being a beautiful peachy brown. It has a wonderful lustre, depth of colour, sparkle and a sheen that almost looks oily. Such is the sparkle shown in a faceted topaz that the white stones in the past were often used as diamond substitutes. .

Topaz was once linked with sanity, healing, and life, as well as being connected to strength by the ancient Greeks. This stone has even been linked to an ability to make the wearer invisible in dangerous situations. A stunning gem, topaz boasts both beauty and strength. .

As with many gems it had innumerable medicinal benefits attributed to it, from being able to help asthma and insomnia if made into a powder - to being able to cure 'dimness of vision'. .

Topaz nearly as hard as diamond, so it can withstand a great deal of wear. Topaz can be cleaned with warm, soapy water or jewelry cleaning solutions. Do not use ultrasonic cleaning. .
