The “Lua de Maraba” Topaz, which in the Portuguese language means “Moon of Maraba” is the second largest faceted topaz in the world, as well as in the Special Exhibitions Gem Collection of the Programa Royal Collections Group, based in Madrid, Spain. The stone which has a beautiful octagonal-cut has dimensions of 18 x 15 x 10 cm, and is of Brazilian origin. The faceted stone that weighs 25,250 carats has a rare grey color, perhaps the only one of its color and size in the world. The topaz collection of the  Programa Royal Collections (PRC) is undoubtedly the largest and most comprehensive collection of topaz in the world, consisting of 54 gemstones of all colors, cuts and sizes totaling more than 90,000 carats. This collection also includes eight gemstones varying in size from 1,800 carats to 31,000 carats, perhaps the largest collection of enormous faceted topaz gemstones in the world
