This gemstone is impressive to say the least. It is a nice light to medium-light reddish orange. A collector would find this gemstone a real treasure. It is quite attractive. I would use this gemstone in a very large pendant. Expect to be noticed a lot when you wear this stone. This is possibly not a gemstone for the shy. Topaz is a Type I stone which means that one expects it to have few inclusions. For this stone type, SI2 means that inclusions are very obvious using a 10X magnifier. They would be expected to also be noticeable to very noticeable to the unaided eye. I was unable to see any flaws in this gemstone with my unaided eye even with a careful examination. The magnified photo shows these inclusions. This gemstone would be interesting with the following matching but smaller stone. A ring and a pendant? When you combine the interesting fancy cut to the impressive size and lovely color, this gemstone is quite outstanding and essentially unique. It would be difficult to imagine something in a gemstone that would make the wearer more memorable.
