Unheated Topaz - 46.11 carats

Nearly all commercial blue topaz is heated, irradiated, or both to create the "London Blue" color commonly seen. But this gem has neither been heated nor irradiated. If this were a small stone it would most likely appear nearly colorless, but in large sizes such as this the color is retained. Cut in a Portuguese oval design with fine clarity this is a must for any collector!
