4.32 Ct. Zircon from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Like a secret forest held between the palms of dawn, this one beautiful transparent 4.32 carat oval shape green zircon breathes a deep, verdant song. From the storied soils of Ceylon Sri Lanka it arrives, a gem born of ancient earth and patient time, carrying an intense color intensity that shifts like moss and sea glass when caught by light. The dimensions 10.40 by 8.26 by 5.90 millimeters give it a generous, graceful presence, the oval silhouette lengthening the finger and whispering of elegance. Cut as a mixed brilliant, with an excellent polish, each facet is a mirror to a different green, each plane a small stage where fire and brilliance perform, and the transparency of the stone allows that play of light to move unhindered through the heart of the gem. At The Natural Gemstone Company we cherish stones that speak in both color and character, and this zircon speaks in a voice both noble and intimate.

Because size and clarity are the twin pillars of a true statement piece, this 4.32 carat green zircon stands with quiet confidence, its proportions and clarity inviting designs that demand attention. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity is very slightly included, which means the stone reads as clean and luminous to the gaze, while the tiny natural traces within only deepen its personality, like brushstrokes in a painting that prove the hand of the artist. The mixed brilliant cut amplifies the gem, focusing light into scintillating flashes and lively sparkles that seem to emanate from within, so that whether set in a classic solitaire or embraced by a halo of diamonds, the zircon becomes the heart of the piece. The excellent polish gives each facet the kind of finish that makes glances linger, and because this gem has no enhancement, its beauty is wholly natural and honest, a rare thing that always feels luxurious.

Imagine this green zircon at the center of a proposal ring, catching the first and last light of the day as vows are spoken, or imagine it as an heirloom pendant, passing from hand to hand with stories gathered like dew. Its intense green is romantic in the way that old forests are romantic, rich with memory and possibility, and its oval outline wears both boldness and femininity, making it perfect for a statement ring that will be cherished for decades. At The Natural Gemstone Company we love to see these stones set with intention, in warm gold to bring out olive undertones, in cool white metal to sharpen the clarity and contrast, or in custom artisan settings where the metalwork curves and breathes around the gem like vines. The play of light in the mixed brilliant cut gives the gem an animated life, a dancing heart that will catch compliments and start conversations, lending presence to the wearer without ever feeling ostentatious.

As your guide and partner in selecting a gem that matters, I invite you to imagine this zircon as the centerpiece of a piece that tells your story, a companion for anniversaries and quiet mornings alike. Its provenance from Ceylon Sri Lanka, its transparent nature, its 4.32 carat weight and substantial dimensions, its mixed brilliant cut and excellent polish, its very slightly included clarity when viewed at eye level, its intense color, and the fact that it is untreated, all combine to make it a gem that is at once wearable and museum worthy. For care, gentle cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush will keep its polish bright, and occasional professional checks of the setting will ensure it remains secure for generations. If you would like, The Natural Gemstone Company can assist with bespoke mounting options, secure packaging for private viewings, and certification to accompany this natural treasure. Allow this green zircon to become the piece that people remember, a quiet proclamation of taste and affection, a jewel that carries the soft poetry of earth and light.
