1.09 Ct. Zircon from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This white zircon began its journey deep within the ancient alluvial gravels of Ceylon Sri Lanka, where skilled local miners work with generations of knowledge and care, choosing pockets of gem bearing soil with patience and precision. From that landscape a crystal was selected for its clarity and fire, then sent along a transparent supply chain to expert cutters who honored the stone with respect, avoiding heat or other treatments, leaving the gem in its natural state with no enhancement. The result is a beautiful transparent 1.09 carat round shape white zircon, with dimensions of 6.28 x 6.24 x 3.44 mm, fashioned in a mixed brilliant cut that balances scintillation and depth. At eye level the clarity is graded very slightly included, the color intensity reads near colorless, and the polish is excellent, so the stone returns light with crisp flashes of white brilliance and subtle spectral fire that is characteristic of fine zircon.

For the conscious consumer seeking a gem with story and integrity, this piece embodies ethical sourcing, traceability, and conscious craft, each stage documented and verified by the team at The Natural Gemstone Company. Choosing this zircon means choosing a gem that celebrates responsible mining practices, fair compensation for local workers, and minimal environmental impact through careful extraction and handling. It is perfectly suited for a thoughtful engagement ring, a minimalist solitaire pendant, or a bespoke commission piece where the narrative of origin is as important as the sparkle. The mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish ensure enduring beauty, while the absence of enhancement preserves the stone in its authentic form. When you add this Ceylon zircon to your collection you are not only acquiring a luminous gem, you are carrying forward a story of people, place, and craft, a jewel that reflects ethical intention as clearly as it reflects the light.
