2.92 Ct. Zircon from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

From the depths of Ceylon Sri Lanka where gemstones have been prized since the earliest civilizations comes a stone worthy of both reverence and daily wear, offered with care by The Natural Gemstone Company. This transparent brownish yellow zircon weighs 2.92 carat and is cut in a classic oval shape, finished with a mixed brilliant cut that balances old world charm with modern scintillation. The gem measures 8.38 by 7.42 by 5.16 mm, and it displays eye clean clarity evaluated at eye level, a medium intense color intensity, and an excellent polish. There is no enhancement, so what you see is nature preserved, a direct link to the storied mines and the artisans who have worked these stones for generations. This piece carries the quiet authority of an object that has always mattered, a gem that feels at home in both a museum case and a cherished private collection.

Zircon has been admired across cultures for its fire and brilliance, and this brownish yellow example is a perfect illustration of why the gem has endured through time. The medium intense color offers a warm, honeyed glow that catches the eye without overwhelming it, a richness that reads as both refined and robust. The mixed brilliant cut serves to amplify the stone elastically, reflecting light with lively flashes of brilliance and subtle play of color, so that in any jewelry setting whether under the lights of a gallery or in the quiet of everyday life the gem will assert itself with dignified presence. Because the item is eye clean the internal landscape is unobstructed, allowing light to pass and scatter freely, which enhances the sense of depth and vitality. The excellent polish completes the visual experience by ensuring that every facet edge is smooth and luminous, so the stone moves with a confident and timeless sparkle.

This zircon will stand out in any jewelry setting, particularly when paired with classic designs that honor its heritage. In a simple solitaire ring the oval shape will elongate the finger, while a tasteful halo will give the gem a stately frame that elevates its warm tone. Set as a pendant the stone will hang with graceful poise, catching light against the wearers chest like a small sun kept close to the heart. For those who cherish heirloom aesthetics, bezel settings and milgrain details will echo the long history of fine jewelry, while tapered baguettes or delicate filigree will place the stone in a context that feels both antique and relevant. The dimensions 8.38 by 7.42 by 5.16 mm and the 2.92 carat weight make this zircon versatile enough to be the focal point of a bespoke commission, or the perfect complement in a more elaborate ensemble.
