Sterling Silver Blue Topaz Rings by Damon Washington

Rings are potent symbols of power, the circle of life, and promises to keep. At Gemvara, we believe that the rings you wear should be one of a kind, like you. That's why all our rings are made from scratch in your choice of gems and precious metals. Choose garnet and rose gold or pearl and yellow gold: it's your choice. Mix and match gems and precious metals for a look that's exactly you. It's jewelry for all life's occasions, from a birthday or graduation to your own personal milestones and celebrations. Our impressive selection of sterling silver blue topaz rings by Ruzanna Davtian, Just Like You Designs, Bijoux & Bijoux, and many other jewelry designers means you can find a style that's perfect for you. Because all Gemvara sterling silver blue topaz rings are made to order, we can hand-select the finest quality materials to perfectly suit your design. Blue topaz captures the beauty of azure skies. Sterling silver is a precious metal with a bright, cool white shine. Gemvara's silver jewelry is crafted in premium Argentium 960, which resists tarnish better than generic sterling silver. Be careful when washing your hands: rings can easily slip down the drain! Clean sterling silver blue topaz rings in a bowl of water with a little mild dish soap. You can use a soft brush where dust collects. Gemvara's fine quality sterling silver blue topaz rings are designed to be passed down for generations, hand-crafted by skilled craftspeople in the United States.

Although Damon Washington majored in art, it was football that first put him in the spotlight. He excelled as a running back, first for Colorado State and later for the New York Giants. As a player, he began to collect jewelry, marveling at the detail and craftsmanship concentrated in something so small. After he left the NFL, he decided to turn his interest in jewelry into a career, studying jewelry design at the Gemological Institute of America. Today this renaissance man has his own jewelry design company, called Damon 2029, after the numbers he wore on the field. He is often inspired by artwork, his own or the work of masters, and colors and emotion help drive his design process. His jewelry has a bold flair worthy of his warrior spirit. As you might expect, Damon has designed jewelry for many NFL players, including Ron Dayne, Clark Haggans, Travis Laboy, James Farrior, Ron Dixon, and Thabiti Davis.

Legend has it that blue topaz minimizes dangerous enchantment and increases your strength. When shopping for blue topaz, the most important aspect to consider is color. Blue topaz should capture the color of the sky on a cloudless day. The more pure and bright the pastel blue, the better. Generally blue topaz comes in three colors: pale, sky blue topaz; vivid, super blue topaz; and dark, London blue topaz. Gemvara's blue topaz jewelry is made with super blue topaz, but small sizes never show as saturated a color. Cut and clarity influence the value of the blue topaz because the light shade of the gem makes imperfections more pronounced. Blue was once the rarest color of topaz, but today it is the most common thanks to a stable color-enhancement process involving irradiation and heat that was developed in the 1970s. The enhancement of all blue topaz on the market today means this gem is affordable and available even in large sizes. Blue topaz is a December birthstone, the gem for the 4th anniversary, and the state gem of Texas. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality blue topaz will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine black onyx jewelry is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
