The White Topaz

The topaz is particularly popular because of its variety of colors: it is found in white, yellow, orange, pink, blue green, purple, and even sometimes in multicolor.
The origins of the name of this beautiful crystal remain uncertain. Some authors attribute its origins to the Sanskrit word "tapaz" which means "fire". Others believe that the name "topaz" comes from the Greek island Topazios, today Zabargad.
Topaz is a Pleochroic stone, that is to say that it changes color depending on the angle from which it is viewed.
