Um. I could have sworn that blue topaz usually costs less than $10 a carat, and even Barry Bridgestock''s topaz is $30 a carat (ish). This one...if I guestimate that it''s 25 carats....thats $160 a carat!
Am I smoking CRACK, or is that thing (which really isn''t that pretty IMHO) SEVERELY overpriced?! And 3 weeks to cut?!

This beautiful, HUGE Blue Topaz is 100% flawless. *Not Man Made Material*
16mm round cut
197 hand cut, precision facets polished to perfection.
The double refraction of Topaz makes this huge modified portugese cut stone simply amazing.
This is one breath-taking stone. If you are going for shock and awe, this is the one for you. The depth of the blue makes this stone unique.
If set in 14K gold, a ring with this stone will be valued around $6,000.00 - $8,500.00 USD.
This stone took me 3 weeks to cut.
Insurance mandatory at $5 for this stone.
