How to distinguish an original from a fake
White topaz is a stone that is quite widespread in nature, its cost is low. Therefore, it makes no sense to fake it. Nevertheless, even in the case of topaz, you can run into scammers. You can understand that you have a real pebble in your hands by the following signs:
- Topaz is very hard, so it will easily leave a scratch on the glass.
- If you rub the topaz on the woolen fabric, it will be electrified within a few seconds and will begin to attract hair and paper.
- If you hold topaz in a fist for a while, it will remain cold. The fake will quickly heat up.
- Bring the topaz to the light source. Its edges will play in different shades. If the glow is solid, then you are dealing with a fake.
The final verdict on the authenticity of the stone can only be made in laboratory conditions. For this, a solution of methylene iodide is used. A real stone drowns quickly enough in a liquid, and the fake remains floating on the surface.
Conclusion
White topaz is a fairly friendly stone that has no contraindications for the zodiac sign and other parameters. Nevertheless, both gemologists and esotericists claim that there is an energy compatibility (or incompatibility) of the stone with a person. To understand whether you made friends with topaz, it will take about a week of continuous wearing of jewelry. If during this time you feel peace and pleasant warmth in your body, then white topaz is your stone. Otherwise, you feel unwell and in a bad mood. Moreover, if the owner doesn’t like the topaz, he can even leave a burn on his skin.
