0.92 Ct. Zircon from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There is a quiet authority to gemstones that have been admired across centuries, and this white zircon carries that lineage with rare clarity, originating from the storied mines of Ceylon, Sri Lanka. Zircon has been treasured since antiquity for its brilliant sparkle and optical fire, and this example is no exception, presenting a timeless presence that evokes classical elegance and enduring value. The history of zircon is woven through empires and eras, prized for its honest, natural beauty, and its near colorless appearance allows it to echo the luminous traditions of white gemstones worn by generations seeking a balance of refinement and resilience. This gem is transparent and pure in spirit, a mirror of the old world craftsmanship that has inspired jewelers and patrons for centuries, making it an ideal choice for those who wish to carry forward an heirloom sensibility in a fresh and personal way.

At the heart of its modern appeal are the precise proportions and cut that make this zircon exceptionally suited to custom jewelry, its round shape and mixed brilliant cut designed to maximize return of light and scintillation. Weighing 0.92 carat, and measuring 5.57 by 5.61 by 3.57 millimeters, it occupies a sweet spot in scale, large enough to command attention as the centerpiece of a ring or pendant, yet refined enough to sit gracefully in delicate settings such as bezel mountings, handcrafted solitaires, classic prong rings, and bespoke engagement pieces. The mixed brilliant cut blends a faceting scheme that enhances both the crown and pavilion dynamics, producing lively dispersion and a crisp play of white light. With a clarity grade of very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the stone retains a clean visual field that jewelers can use to craft settings that highlight its transparency and internal charm, while the excellent polish ensures each facet finishes with a mirror quality that deepens its luminous effect. Because this zircon is natural and untreated, with no enhancement, it brings an authentic provenance that designers and clients value when commissioning pieces intended to become family treasures.

Choosing this gem from The Natural Gemstone Company means selecting a stone that is ready to be translated into a personal work of art, one that respects tradition while inviting contemporary interpretation. Its near colorless tone is wonderfully adaptable, harmonizing with platinum and white gold for a cool, classic presentation, and warming glassily with yellow gold for a more vintage feeling, offering versatility that suits a variety of design languages. For custom jewelers the specific measurements and comfortable carat weight make planning straightforward, whether the design calls for a halo to amplify apparent size, a minimalist solitaire to celebrate clarity, or a three stone composition that pairs this zircon with colored accents. The round outline is the most forgiving and elegant choice for daily wear, providing even stress distribution in mounting and a universally flattering silhouette on the finger or as a pendant. Our craftsmen at The Natural Gemstone Company can suggest ideal prong counts and setting depths that preserve the integrity of the mixed brilliant cut, ensuring maximum light performance and secure placement for a gem that will be cherished for years to come.
