This rose-cut white topaz cabochon is an excellent choice for designs that highlight the vintage cut and the crisp clarity of a white gemstone. Use it in custom pendant, earring or ring designs, or combine it with an assortment of complementary-color gemstones to create a multicolor necklace—its bright-white color complements nearly any gemstone. White topaz is valued for its brilliant white color and economical price. Because it is a natural gemstone, it may contain natural impurities and presents a level of fire more similar to that of a diamond than does a lab-created gem. This faceted gemstone offers a bright, eye-clean clarity. Topaz is one of the birthstones for November.

A hard, usually transparent aluminum silicate gem material, topaz has a brilliance that rivals more expensive gemstones, making it an economical alternative to more costly gems. An "8" on the Mohs scale, topaz is tough and durable, ideal for all types of jewelry. Topaz forms in a orthorhombic structure with crystals that are usually prismatic. Pure topaz is colorless; impurities give the gemstone color. Gemstones can appear in a range of colors, with natural pink being the rarest. Most topaz colors are heat-treated or irradiated to enhance their color. In folklore, this gemstone is believed to dispel sadness and fear, to ward off poisons and to reverse infertility.

A favorite of yesteryear, this rose-cut faceting features a flat base (no pavilion) and a crown made up of triangular facets.
