See note below regarding perspective distortion. Golden Lab Grown Citrine. Lone Star in Emerald Cut shape. This is a Very large stone that was cut as a special order for a customer.

A Mason County blue topaz side-by-side with a Mason County white topaz. This blue stone is a very good blue for a natural, untreated stone. The picture highlights the few small inclusions, visible as the pinpoint bright spots, that is typical of natural blue topaz. Because natural, Texas blue topaz is so rare, inclusions of this type do not decrease the value of the stone except when they greatly interfer with your ability to see the star. The white topaz is brilliant and has no inclusions. Texas topaz is considered by many experts to be among the world's best and most strikingly beautiful. |

Facts about the Lone Star Cut The Name Named for the state slogan "Texas - The Lone Star State", the Lone Star Cut displays the familiar five-pointed Texas Star of the state seal and is the official State Gemstone Cut of Texas. (House Concurrent Resolution 97 of the Texas Legislature.)
The Cut
The most commonly used material for this cut is blue topaz imported from Brazil and is commonly heat treated to produce a permanent blue color. This also makes a very impressive star. Right now we also have imported light blue topaz that has not been heat treated. Unless otherwise specified, the blue lone star cuts pictured are cut from treated Brazilian material.
Other Material
We can also cut other "star" cuts inspired by the Lone Star cut, such as the triple star, double star, and outline star, on special order. Contact us for price quote.
