About Mystic Topaz - History and Introduction

Mystic topaz is quite a new gem type, first seen around 1998. It is natural colorless (white) topaz that has been
coated, giving it a unique rainbow color effect. Therefore, it is not a gem type, but is an enhanced clear topaz.
The coating technology, known as heated treated thin film deposition, was pioneered by a company called Azotic Coating Inc. Mystic
topaz may be so-called because its attractive changing colors appear deep, mysterious and unusual. Mystic topaz usually
appears to display rainbow colors, with greens, blues and purples being quite prominent..

Deposits of topaz have been found in Brazil, Afghanistan, Australia, Myanmar (Burma), China, Germany, Japan, Madagascar,
Mexico, Namibia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Russia, Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka, Ukraine and the USA. Enormous topaz crystals have been
discovered in Minas Gerais (Brazil) and Ukraine.

Mystic Topaz Clarity and Luster

Mystic topaz is transparent to translucent. Topaz exhibits high clarity with few inclusions, so topaz gemstones can be
examined by the naked eye and declared "eye clean", which means that no imperfections can be seen. Topaz is highly
prized for its brilliance and vitreous (glassy) lustre.

Mystic topaz is a very versatile material. Therefore it can be fashioned into a great variety of shapes, such as square,
round, octagon, pear, oval, heart and other fancy shapes. Strongly colored gemstones are usually scissor cut whereas
weakly colored stones are generally brilliantly cut. This best shows off the brilliance and clarity of the gems. Since
mystic topaz is strongly colored, the clear topaz can be brilliantly cut in preparation for the color enhancement.
When topaz has irregular inclusions, it is often cabochon-shaped. The hardness of topaz makes it resistant to scratches.
However, lapidaries must handle topaz carefully, due to its perfect cleavage, which means that it can easily fracture.

To clean your mystic topaz, simply use soapy water and a soft cloth. Be sure to rinse well to remove soapy residue.
As with most gemstones, ultrasonic cleaners and steamers are not recommended. Always remove any jewelry or gemstones before exercising,
cleaning or engaging in harsh physical activities such as sports. Store mystic topaz away from other gemstones to avoid scratches.
It is best to wrap gemstones in soft cloth or place them inside a fabric-lined jewelry box.
