Topaz is a common gemstone that has been used for centuries in jewellery. Usually golden brown to yellow colour. The Egyptians said that topaz was coloured with the golden glow of the mighty sun god Ra. This made topaz a very powerful amulet that protected the faithful against harm.
The Romans associated topaz with Jupiter, who also is the god of the sun. And Greek legend has it that topaz could make the wearer invisible and would change colour in the presence of poisoned food or drink. It is the birthstone of November.
