Out of all the varieties of blue topaz, the London Blue Topaz is most famous and sought after for its deep shade of blue. Therefore, it should not come as a surprise that the London Blue topaz ring is a sought after accessory across the United States, Europe, and the rest of the world.

Basically, topaz as a stone is colorless and is irradiated and subject to heat treatment to get color. However, the deepest color that one can get is the London Blue Topaz. In order to get the shade of London Blue Topaz, a colorless topaz is placed in a nuclear reactor and subject to high energy neutrons thus changing this colorless piece of rock into one of the most famous iridescent blue beauties of the world. Because they are subject to nuclear radiation, these colored rocks are kept dormant for six months to ensure no radioactivity. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission or the NRC ensures that they are completely free of any radioactive emissions.

Though most London Blue Topaz stones are artificially created through the above process, there are a few blue topaz stones that are naturally present on this earth. They are rare but are mostly found in areas around Brazil in South America. Needless to say, they are considerable more expensive than the artificial ones.
