Topaz Engagement Rings

Traditionally, engagement rings feature a diamond center stone. Blue topaz engagement rings use a gemstone in the place of the center diamond. If you aren't sure about going with a blue topaz center stone, consider selecting a diamond engagement ring with blue topaz accents.

The blue topaz is considered the gemstone of love, symbolizing loyalty. Use it in an engagement ring to honor your emotional connection. Blue topaz is the birthstone for December. 

The cool blue tone of topaz looks stunning against a white gold or platinum setting. Newer designs also feature yellow or rose gold for a romantic take on this gemstone’s tones.

When you don't want to feature blue topaz as a center stone, consider incorporating it as a topaz wedding ring.

Diamonds are the hardest stone, ranking a 10 on the Mohs Hardness Scale. Blue topaz, which is an 8 on the Mohs scale, is fairly durable, although it’s prone to cleavage. For very active people, a blue topaz may not be suitable for daily wear.

A blue, Swiss blue or London blue topaz engagement ring will likely cost less than one that features a diamond as the main gemstone. This is because varieties of topaz are priced much lower than diamonds. The design complexity and materials of a blue topaz ring will impact its overall price, but these rings are typically priced lower than diamond ones.

Gold is the perfect pairing for topaz engagement rings. White gold designs allow the blue colors to shine, while yellow or rose gold create a unique contrast.

Blue topaz engagement rings are an increasingly popular choice due to their symbolism, durability and beauty. Blue topaz wedding rings and engagement rings are great choices for meaningful jewelry. 

Regular cleaning will keep your topaz engagement ring looking its best. Use a gentle jewelry cleaning solution to restore the topaz’s sparkle. Avoid wearing blue topaz engagement rings when engaging in activities like gardening, cleaning or cooking to avoid damaging the gemstone or the setting of your ring.
