6.26 Ct. Zircon from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

At The Natural Gemstone Company, we take pride in providing gemstones of exceptional character and quality. One such distinguished offering is our stunning 6.26 carat cushion-shaped brown zircon. Originating from the renowned gemstone mines of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, this zircon represents the culmination of nature's artistry and human craftsmanship. Measuring 10.73 by 7.96 by 6.79 millimeters, it is a testament to precision cutting and design. With a mixed brilliant cut, this gem sparkles with remarkable brilliance. This cutting technique is a sophisticated amalgamation of step and brilliant cuts, which is particularly effective in maximizing the light return through the facets and enhancing the gem's natural luster. Each angle has been meticulously calculated and executed to produce a finish that is nothing short of excellent, underscoring our commitment to quality and attention to detail.

The gem's clarity grade, slightly included, evaluated at eye level, reveals minor inclusions visible to the naked eye, adding character to the gem without significantly impairing its brilliance. Zircon is celebrated for its adamantine luster and fire, exhibiting sparkling color flashes reminiscent of diamonds. This brown zircon strikes a balance between elegance and earthy warmth, enhanced by its medium intense color intensity. The rich, grounded tones make this gemstone an enthralling choice for buyers who appreciate understated luxury intertwined with natural beauty. In terms of durability, zircon ranks at 6 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, which ensures that while it is relatively softer than diamonds and sapphires, it remains a sturdy selection suitable for various types of jewelry under proper care. This hardness level provides adequate resistance to everyday wear and tear, making zircon an appealing option for distinctive jewelry pieces.

Craftsmanship is at the forefront of The Natural Gemstone Company's mission, and with an excellent polish, this zircon demonstrates just that. The polish enhances the gem's surface, offering a mirror-like finish that complements the brilliant cut's luminous effects. The attention to detail in both cutting and polishing is evident, as each facet catches and reflects light impeccably, adding depth and sparkle. For knowledgeable buyers, this gemstone is more than just a decorative piece. It is a meticulously crafted item ripe with history, geography, and technical artistry. When investing in this brown zircon, you are acquiring a gemstone that is unique in its combination of color, cut, and clarity, a piece that speaks volumes about its owner’s refined taste and discernment. At The Natural Gemstone Company, we remain committed to delivering only the finest gems, each one a reflection of our relentless pursuit of excellence in the world of natural gemstones.
