Topaz is the traditional birthstone for November and the zodiac sign Scorpio – it is a very hard gemstone, with a Mohs hardness of 8, which makes it suitable for most types of jewellery and for regular wear.
Sugarpuss London has an increasing range of topaz jewellery, including our new Swiss Blue Topaz Ring, which is hand set with a 4mm clear light Swiss blue topaz:
If you after something more opulent, however, we also have these great 18k London Blue Topaz & Black Garnet Earrings (which are now fully hallmarked by the London Assay Office & stamped with our unique studio maker’s mark):
These earrings were especially hard to photograph, because the black garnet kept reflecting in the topaz, but this photo, taken with a macro lens, represents the quality of the earrings well (and at a show we did recently, these earrings were also one of the most admired items on our table).
If those are a bit out of budget, however, then we also these beautiful Pink Topaz, Swarovski & Pearl Earrings:
Don’t forget, we can also make bespoke topaz jewellery items at request – and, depending on what you have in mind, we may be able to offer you a quick turnaround on your piece, as we actually have a huge stash of top quality topaz that we haven’t gotten round to using in our design just yet. Topaz currently in stock includes a lovely strand of chunky pink topaz rondelles; a strand of luscious London blue topaz freeform nuggets; a matching London blue topaz focal pear cut briollete; a few more pink topaz tear drop briolettes (as used in the earrings above); and, finally, two sets of royal swiss blue topaz large cut and water-clear pear briolettes, pictured below:

We are very excited at the moment as we’re just gearing up to release a new set of handmade rings – below is one such example – a 4mm swiss blue topaz hand set into a custom made setting and onto a thick chunky silver base. This isn’t the only style we have coming, however, as we also have a chunky silver starfish ring, more beaded cocktail rings (completely handmade) and a few more gem set rings, such as an oregon sunstone ring and Honduran opal ring.
Please allow for the fact that the picture is a quick photo taken with a Nokia mobile and not a proper store photo – the ring isn’t completely polished up yet either, but we just had to show you.
Watch out for similar rings in mixed precious metals next year (for instance, an 18k gold tube top setting on a silver ring base). We love this style – it just screams contemporary. It’s hard to tell from our picture, but the stone is set into a custom made high bezel setting. We chose to make a topaz ring as, of course, it’s the birthstone for next month.
To find out more about our new ring collection, visit our Tumblr blog, where you can also see a small selection of the gemstones we currently have in stock for gem set rings (we’re working on turning the Oregon sunstone into a sunstone ring at the moment and the Honduran opal is also pictured).
