Yellow topaz is believed to be named after a small island in the Red Sea named Topazos where gold stones were found. Funnily enough, those gold stones were actually peridot, which long ago used to be confused with topaz. Topaz can actually be found around the globe and in all colors of the rainbow. The most valuable color, however, is red and topaz with this color is known as precious topaz or imperial topaz. Topaz symbolizes friendship and is believed to attract wealth and money.
