For example, if i buy a topaz bicone swarovski bead, is the bead really made out of the stone topaz or is it just crystal in the color "topaz"?|||Swarovski is the luxury brand name for the range of precision-cut lead crystal glass. They are the most beautiful crystals in the world but they are manmade and dyed various colors.
There is no problem using a crystal dyed topaz for birthstone jewelry. Although they are dyed they still represent the month of November.
Purchasing the precious stone "topaz" can be very expensive so using a crystal dyed topaz is a great alternative.

.|||I am pretty sure it would just be the color blue. Also, Blue Topaz is not the birthstone for any month, it's a knock-off birthstone for December, which is actually Blue Zircon. Blue Topaz is used as it's cheaper and easier to get.
Hope this helps!
