Solitaire Zircon Ring 6.64 Ct., 14K Yellow Gold

This ring from The Natural Gemstone Company centers on a rare and beautiful 6.64 carat oval shape greenish blue zircon, precisely measured at 10.45 x 8.21 x 6.90 millimeters, and fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut. The stone exhibits intense color saturation that fills the table and crown, and an excellent polish that allows crisp light return and lively scintillation. Clarity is graded as very slightly included evaluated at eye level, which means that the stone appears clean to most viewers and that the minor inclusions do not interfere with the play of light or the gemological integrity. The gem is set entirely in 14K yellow gold, a warm precious metal that complements and enhances the greenish blue tones of the zircon, creating a classical yet distinctive color harmony that reads as refined and intentional. Every specification of this piece has been documented and verified by our gem specialists at The Natural Gemstone Company to give you confidence in the material and workmanship.

From a gemological perspective this zircon is an exceptional example of what educated buyers look for when selecting colored stones. Zircon is prized for its high refractive index and notable dispersion, which produce a lively brilliance and a subtle fire that distinguishes it from other blue green gems. The mixed brilliant cut combines the scintillating facets of a brilliant style on the crown with carefully planned pavilion facets to maximize both sparkle and depth, especially important in a gem with the strong optical properties of zircon. The dimensions of 10.45 by 8.21 by 6.90 millimeters give the stone pleasing proportions and ideal table size, and the resulting optical performance demonstrates excellent light return and face up presence for a 6.64 carat gem. Evaluating clarity at eye level provides a practical assessment for everyday wear, and the very slightly included grade confirms durability without compromising transparency or brilliance.

The historical context and provenance of this piece add another layer of value beyond pure gemological attributes. Zircon has been known and appreciated for thousands of years, traded across ancient routes and prized in many cultures for its brilliance and color. Cambodian zircons in particular have a respected history among connoisseurs and dealers for producing richly saturated blue and green varieties, and this stone carries that lineage. Provenance matters to collectors, because it links a gem to specific geological formations and mining traditions, and because well documented origin supports assessed rarity and ethical sourcing. At The Natural Gemstone Company we curate gemstones with attention to traceability and ethical procurement, and we provide full disclosure regarding treatments and enhancements when applicable. If you have questions about whether a specific zircon has been heat treated to enhance color, we welcome the opportunity to provide a complete treatment history and independent laboratory documentation when available.

For the educated buyer this ring represents a considered purchase that balances aesthetic impact, rarity, and practical considerations. A 6.64 carat natural zircon with intense saturation and very slight inclusions is uncommon in the market, especially when combined with excellent polish and thoughtful cutting, and it therefore holds intrinsic appeal for collectors and jewelry lovers alike. Setting the gem in 14K yellow gold not only provides a durable and enduring mounting, it also acts as a design choice that accentuates the greenish blue hue and enhances everyday wearability. Caring for zircon does require attention to avoid sudden thermal shock and prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals, and we recommend gentle cleaning with warm water and mild detergent and professional inspections for prong integrity. The Natural Gemstone Company offers appraisal and certification services to support insurance and provenance needs, and we are available to discuss custom settings, size adjustments, or additional documentation to meet your collecting criteria. This ring is an opportunity to own a gemstone that combines historical significance, precise gemological quality, and the considered craftsmanship of a fine jeweler.
