Topaz is a yellow-to brown stone (tawny, actually ;^) )
It's my mom's birthstone, so there's a bunch around home. They can
zap topaz with lasers and it turns blue. I like it better that way,
but it annoys my mom, who insists true topaz has to be yellowy brown.
Amethyst is purple, by the way. It's February's (and my) birthstone.
Canary diamonds are also yellow, but they are rare (and more
expensive than white diamonds).
I'd go with topaz, cause I like the birthstone connection.
