Fine scratches run across the crown of this 1.58ct pear, catching the light when the stone is tilted and giving it a slightly softer surface than the sharper stones cut alongside it. Underneath, the material is colorless and fully transparent with a clean VVS interior, and the 8.9x5.9mm outline is well proportioned with a cleanly finished point. Face-up at normal distance the marks do not register. The light return is even along the whole length.
Surface marks of this kind are polishing and handling evidence rather than anything structural, and topaz repolishes easily if a jeweller wants to sharpen it before setting. This is untreated Brazilian topaz, colorless from the ground. A pear of nearly 9mm makes a substantial drop for its weight. Topaz belongs to November on the birthstone list.

About topaz
Topaz is 8 on the Mohs scale, so it resists scratches well, but it has perfect cleavage along one plane, and a sharp knock can split it even when the surface shows no scratches. It suits pendants and earrings, and rings too if worn with care.
Cleaning
Warm water, a drop of mild dish soap and a soft toothbrush are all you need. Brush behind the stone too, where dust and skin oils collect, then rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Skip ultrasonic and steam cleaners: vibration and sudden temperature changes can start a crack along its cleavage.
Wear and storage
Take it off for sport, gardening or heavy work: a sharp knock can split it. Harder stones such as sapphire, ruby and diamond can scratch it, so store it on its own in a gem jar or a soft pouch.
For your jeweler
This topaz is untreated. Topaz should be kept away from the torch flame, acid pickle and the ultrasonic bath. Ask for gentle pressure when setting, since a hard push can split it.
