This is a nice Topaz as you can see. Lots of facets, which give it great brilliance. But a bit of a window on this stone.
I took pictures of this stone in high magnification against a white background to give you the best idea of color and quality. As a certified gemologist I can verify that the above description is accurate and that this stone/stones have been tested in the gem lab to verify identity and natural origin.
Virtually 100% of the Blue Topaz on the market has been heated and irradiated to achieve its color. The practice is considered both safe and acceptable by the gemstone community. But you need to be very careful where you buy Blue Topaz from. There are safety precautions and waiting periods that need to be done to make sure the radiation process was correctly done, and that all traces of radiation are now gone. That’s why you should only really buy Blue Topaz from reputable sellers, to keep yourself 100% safe. In addition to that, there is quite a bit of imitation Topaz on the open market these days, synthetic blue Quartz that looks very close to high quality Blue Topaz. So be careful where you buy.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.
When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
