Topaz is the most popular Orange colored gemstone and is often likened to the fiery sun. Because of this, the color topaz is often associated with enlightenment and radiance and is used on Buddhist monks’ robes. In Perugino and Pinturicchio’s portrait titled, “The Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan,” the character of John the Baptist is wearing a Topaz tunic to depict his directive from God.
How the color is made: Topaz is created by mixing Very Pale Yellow with Pure Orange to achieve a hue that looks like it has been sun-kissed.
History: Historically, a Topaz color was used to portray a person or idea that was believed to be bestowed with heavenly insight, and has come to symbolize spiritual connection.

Topaz is not only a color for fashion enthusiasts but has recently been introduced into household appliances with Dyson’s limited edition multi-styler and air dryer hair tool making waves on Valentine’s Day in 2023. The color adds so much interest to a mundane piece of equipment that customers are flocking to scoop it up.
