Bi-color topaz from Ukraine, precision-cut in a rectangular step design to highlight its natural zoning of pale sky blue and golden champagne. The color variation is entirely natural, caused by trace element differences—primarily fluorine, chromium, and iron—during crystal formation. Stones showing distinct bi-color separation like this are extremely rare in topaz and require careful orientation when cutting to preserve the effect.
Ukrainian topaz is highly regarded for its exceptional clarity and unique color combinations. This piece stands out as both a gemological rarity and a collector’s specimen—clean, untreated, and visually striking.
