Don't forget blue topaz Archived Message

The most commonly used birthstone for December in my area is blue topaz. Although, as a December baby myself, I prefer tanzanite. Some more information about all of the stones from the Geological Institute of American. Blue topaz and blue zircon are very, very rare in nature so the blue ones of these that we see are actually colorless stones that have been heated or irradiated to achieve the blue color. Blue zircon, blue topaz and aquamarine are difficult to distinguish from each other in photos so there may be royals with these stones that we just don't know about.
