1.12 Ct. Zircon from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This 1.12 carat round white zircon from The Natural Gemstone Company stands out because of its precise geometric faceting and mixed brilliant cut, which together maximize light return and fire. The stone measures 5.97 by 5.99 by 3.85 mm, and its proportions are balanced to enhance scintillation from both the crown and pavilion. With eye clean clarity as evaluated at eye level, colorless color intensity, and an excellent polish, this zircon gives a clean, crisp visual impact without any enhancements, sourced directly from Ceylon Sri Lanka. Compared to mass market options such as low grade white sapphire or unnamed lab grown simulants, this Ceylon zircon offers superior optical performance and natural provenance, delivering bright white light reflection and subtle spectral dispersion that reads as lively and elegant rather than flat or overly artificial.

When placed beside other transparent gems in the same price band, this zircon offers a distinct advantage in value and personality. Its mixed brilliant faceting scheme is designed to break light into numerous reflective planes, creating a dynamic play of brilliance and fire that rivals much more expensive stones at a fraction of the cost. Unlike many off the shelf cubic zirconia pieces that rely on size alone to impress, this natural zircon achieves sparkle through careful cutting geometry and polishing, which preserves weight while amplifying sparkle. For buyers seeking a stone that combines ethical sourcing, no enhancement, and gemological clarity, this piece from The Natural Gemstone Company represents a compelling choice. It is ideal for solitaire rings, refined pendants, or bespoke settings where the interplay of light is the focal point, and it outperforms many alternatives by delivering a refined, natural brightness and long lasting visual appeal.
