One beautiful transparent 1.00 carat oval shape brownish yellow zircon from Tanzania, measuring 5.63 by 4.87 by 3.97 mm, presented in a mixed brilliant cut with an excellent polish. The gem exhibits a medium intense color intensity, and a clarity grade of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, indicating only minor natural inclusions that do not detract from overall brilliance. The mixed brilliant faceting strategy pairs a precisely faceted brilliant crown with a modified pavilion geometry to maximize scintillation and dispersion, and the slightly deeper pavilion yields a depth ratio of approximately 75.6 percent, a proportion chosen to enhance the stone s inherent adamantine luster and strong dispersion characteristic of zircon. No enhancement has been applied, so this piece displays its natural optical properties, with tight facet junctions and symmetrical girdle control that reflect careful lapidary work and an excellent polish that delivers crisp facet reflections and lively fire under varied light angles.
The brownish yellow tone evokes a poetic story, a sunrise over the Tanzanian plains captured in mineral form, a warm golden promise held within a compact oval. In settings that bring the table to the light, the stone s medium intense hue sings like morning sunlight, while the very slightly included clarity reads as honest and enduring, a testament to natural origin and authenticity. For a customer seeking a romantic narrative with technical merit, this zircon can be imagined as the heart of a pledge ring or as a pendant that carries the memory of a dawn conversation, the subtle inclusions becoming metaphors for lived experience that enhance rather than hide true radiance. Curated and supplied by The Natural Gemstone Company, this untreated Tanzanian zircon is ideal for connoisseurs who value precise cut geometry, unaltered color, and exemplary polish, a stone ready to be set by a master jeweler into a piece that balances measured proportions with a timeless emotional resonance.
