Blue Topaz is the Birthstone for December. The stone is said to represent loyalty, faithfulness, and constancy, which is perfect when giving this stone as a wedding or anniversary gift. It’s the official gemstone for the 16th anniversary. It is said that people would wear Blue Topaz if they felt they were at risk for their lives, as it would be powerful enough to guard against evil. You will be protected from your enemies. This beautiful stone has been used for centuries in different pieces of jewelry and looks amazing in rings, brooches, and necklaces and is ideal for every day wear.
There are three basic colors of Blue Topaz: Sky Blue (the lightest), Swiss Blue, and London Blue (the darkest, which is often used as an inexpensive substitute for Sapphire). Blue Topaz is seen as a cooling, calming stone. It was believed to have cooling properties, both physical (it was thought to cool boiling water), and emotional (said to calm a hot temper). Blue Topaz is used by crystal healers to aid in communication. It helps to clear muddled thoughts, clarify the mind, and put ideas into words. The ancient Greeks believed that Topaz would afford the wearer invisibility in threatening situations, and also that it would change color in the presence of poison.
