Oval in shape and faceted, it is sumptuous 9.8 carats! Topaz, especially imperial and precious ones, have become so desired and expensive that this is a rare treat. Remember that peach toned topaz ranks as imperial, more citrine color, precious.
This one is unusual for its spans both designations. Shades of peach tones blend with pure golden highlights and a gemstone with remarkable clarity.
It is set into a coronet mount. Meticulously constructed, just its top fitting alone along with the twisted 18k gold and diamonds is a miniature work of art.
Two old mine cut diamonds grace each end of the bar.
