Riverbed Channel Cushion Blue Topaz Ring

A cushion cut blue topaz softens the corners and glows across a channel of flush accents in this ring. The effect is warm and easy, made for right hand wear. Your blue runs from the deep London through the vivid Swiss to the pale Sky, each a genuine topaz from honest stock. The colour is reached with irradiation and heat, the way nearly all blue topaz is made, and we disclose it plainly. Topaz is hard yet brittle along its cleavage, so the recessed channel shelters the accents while the cushion shape blunts the corners. Pick your metal, carat and blue below.

Shown complete with a real Cushion blue topaz center from 0.75 to 2.5 carat, a london blue topaz (deep steely blue), swiss blue topaz (vivid electric blue), or sky blue topaz (pale watery blue), your choice, from $1,689 all-in. The price is the finished ring: the setting, the blue topaz center you choose, and the labor to set and size it. Blue topaz rates 8 on the Mohs scale, so it is hard, but it has a perfect cleavage plane, which means a sharp knock can split it; a protective setting suits it and it is best removed for gardening, the gym, and rough work. Almost all blue topaz is irradiated and heat treated from colourless topaz to reach its blue, a standard, stable and permanent step that is cleared for sale before the stone ships, and we disclose it plainly rather than claim the stone is untreated. These calibrated stones ship without an individual lab report. Want a certified or larger center? Contact our concierge and we will source and quote it honestly.
