Natural Paraiba Colour Topaz adjustable Ring with 925 Sterling Silver

Stone:(Topaz)

Ring size:(7to7.5)

"Paraiba color topaz" refers to a topaz gemstone that exhibits a vivid neon blue or greenish-blue color, similar to the famous Paraíba tourmaline from Brazil. While the actual Paraíba tourmaline is a copper-bearing elbaite prized for its rare and intense electric blue-to-green hues, some topaz stones are treated (typically through coating or irradiation) to mimic that color and are marketed as “Paraiba color topaz.”

### Key Points:

- Origin of Name: The term "Paraiba" is borrowed from the Paraíba tourmaline’s color, not because the topaz comes from Paraíba, Brazil.

- Treatment: Most Paraiba color topaz is treated (e.g., via diffusion or coating) to achieve that vivid color.

- Natural vs. Treated: Unlike natural Paraíba tourmalines, this topaz is not naturally that color.

- Value: It’s more affordable than actual Paraíba tourmaline but still valued for its bright, striking appearance.
