Here is a stunning Zircon! This gem has a gorgeous pink color! The clarity of the stone is excellent and flashes beautifully in the hand. This is an Asscher cut and is a stunning shape for Zircon. You can see the classic birefringence (facet doubling) that Zircon displays in the photos. Zircon is often confused with cubic zirconia. However, Zircon is a natural mineral and chemically is zirconium orthosilicate. This stone will make an excellent piece of jewelry, particularly a center stone for a ring! Enjoy!
