Here is a stunning Zircon!  This gem has an enchanting rose pink color with bright pink flash!  The clarity of the stone is excellent and flashes beautifully in the hand.  This is an Asscher cut, and looks stunning in 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!  Cut at Kosnar Gem Co, Colorado, USA.  Enjoy!
