Blue Topaz Rings – More About The Royal Topaz Rings

The Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, made blue gemstone rings, especially sapphire and blue topaz rings, the most sought after when she inherited Princess Diana’s beautiful engagement ring upon her betrothal to Prince William. While hers is a deep blue sapphire ring surrounded by diamonds all around, all blue gemstones suddenly became popular and considering that sapphires are so expensive, it’s no surprise. Copies of the royal engagement ring flooded the market before, during and after the wedding hype of the royal couple and while some girls were content with costume jewelry, some of the best that arrived in the market were simulated sapphire and blue topaz rings. Lab created sapphires and topaz are much more affordable to buy than the real stuff and some of the rings that became available on the market were truly spectacular.

It didn’t matter really if you got a topaz ring that was a copy of Kate Middleton’s engagement ring; topaz and sapphire are sometimes so similar in color that the untrained eye can and will easily mistake the two precious gemstones. A topaz ring will also cost considerably less as opposed to a sapphire one, even one that has been created in the lab.
