Gem: Zircon Weight: 6.02 cts. Size: 9.0 mm Color: Champagne Clarity: VS Cut: Asscher Locality: Tanzania Treatment: Heated
Here is a fantastic Zircon! This gem has a bright champagne color with a brilliant silvery luster that is much like Diamond. The clarity of this stone is excellent and has just breathtaking flash! The stone displays some multi-color flash out in the sunlight. The cut is a classics Asscher cut which glitters beautifully in hand. You can see the classic birefringence (facet doubling) that Zircon displays in the photos. Zircon has a bad rap because it is often confused by many as cubic zirconia. However, Zircon is a natural mineral and chemically is zirconium orthosilicate. This stone will make an excellent piece of jewelry, particularly a ring and will look nearly identical to fancy colored Diamond! Enjoy!
