Description
Topaz is rich in folklore. Among other beliefs, it symbolized the Egyptian Sun god, Ra. Hindus believed in the gemstone’s protective abilities. They felt it could protect homes from burning down, while also protecting their health and beauty. African shamans also treated the gemstone as sacred, using it in their healing rituals. They felt that whoever held the gemstone would become wealthy. Ancient Greeks and Romans used topaz for strength and to prevent injuries. Europeans linked the sunny stone to Apollo, the god of the Sun. Later during the Renaissance in Europe, people believed that topaz could break spells and quell anger. – American Gem Society
