4.36 Ct. Green Zircon from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This transparent 4.36 carat cushion shape green zircon presents a rare combination of size and optical performance, with precise dimensions of 10.73 x 7.58 x 4.88 mm. The elongated cushion profile yields a length to width ratio of approximately 1.42, and a depth proportion near 53.3 percent, values that indicate a well balanced pavilion and crown relationship for optimal light return. The stone is executed in a mixed brilliant cut, employing a brilliant facet architecture on the pavilion to maximize brilliance and dispersion, paired with modified crown facet geometry to concentrate and saturate the green hue. Clarity is graded very slightly included at eye level, indicating minimal inclusions that do not compromise face up transparency or the stone full brilliance. Color intensity is described as intense, with high saturation and a clean tone that remains consistent across the table and facets, and the piece has an excellent polish which results in crisp facet junctions and strong surface reflection. The zircon is untreated, no enhancement, and its provenance is Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source known for producing gem quality zircons with exceptional color purity.

For the knowledgeable collector seeking a statement piece that combines technical finesse with natural beauty, this Ceylon green zircon is an exemplary addition to a high end gemstone collection. The mixed brilliant faceting is executed to precise angles and symmetry to exploit zircon inherent high refractive index and dispersion, producing notable scintillation and fire that is especially apparent under directional lighting. The stone s faceting strategy balances pavilion depth and table dimensions to preserve color saturation while allowing intense internal flashes, a desirable outcome for collectors who prioritize both color and brilliance. The excellent polish and careful faceting result in clean facet planes that enhance luster and visual depth, and the very slightly included clarity grade ensures the gem reads as transparent and lively when mounted.
