19.39 Ct. Zircon from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

It is a rare pleasure to present a single, exceptional gem from The Natural Gemstone Company, a transparent oval brownish orange zircon that commands immediate attention, one 19.39 carat stone that measures 14.10 x 12.31 x 11.12 mm, sourced from the famed gem fields of Ceylon Sri Lanka, and offered in truly limited quantity. This zircon arrives to you in its natural state with no enhancement, and its medium color intensity gives it a refined warmth that is both versatile and unmistakable. The clarity is very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, a grade that preserves exceptional transparency while lending the stone a hint of natural provenance that collectors and connoisseurs value. The overall finish and feel are a testament to careful selection and precise finishing, with an excellent polish that allows every facet to breathe and respond to light without obstruction.

What sets this zircon apart, and what will ultimately define its lasting desirability, is the geometric brilliance achieved by its mixed brilliant cut. Every facet has been placed with intent, creating a precisely balanced interplay of large and small planes that guide light deep into the gem and then return it with dazzling contrast. The oval silhouette is classic and wearable, yet the internal geometry is contemporary and energetic, producing a scintillation that reads as movement, fire, and depth all at once. The pavilion facets complement the crown in such a way that when the stone is tilted, split flashes of champagne and copper bloom across the surface, and when viewed face up the table presents a focused, dramatic center of light that anchors the gem visually. This is more than cut, it is architectural design at a miniature scale, and it is the reason this zircon exhibits maximum light play with every nuance of motion.

For the collector seeking exclusivity, or the bespoke client imagining a singular commission, this zircon is a rare canvas. Its 19.39 carat weight makes it substantial enough to serve as a museum quality collector piece, and its measurements translate beautifully into a commanding ring, a dramatic pendant, or a centerpiece in a custom high jewelry creation. The brownish orange hue is uniquely adaptable, pairing exquisitely with warm metals like yellow gold and rose gold, while also juxtaposing elegantly with cool white metals when the intent is modern contrast. The stone’s very slightly included clarity becomes an asset in intimate settings where the light play can be appreciated up close, and the excellent polish ensures surfaces remain crisp and alive. From the first private viewing to the completed bespoke setting, this zircon invites the owner into an intimate process of design and curation, a process that is fitting for those who seek rarity and a sense of belonging to an elite circle of collectors.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we curate such opportunities with care, and we extend a quiet invitation to those who understand that true rarity is experienced rather than explained. This single brownish orange zircon is not a mass produced commodity, it is a limited expression of nature and skill, and owning it is to claim a piece of Ceylonese heritage refined by masterful cutting.
