Product Description
We should call this Gemstone a Rainbow Zircon! Rose Zircons are RARE - and spectacular. There's a prismatic effect that is just spectacular, and coupled with clear white diamonds in rose gold - it's a fabulous ring with Bling!
We took this spectacular Rose Zircon, cut perfectly in a brilliant oval shape that is cut for endless rainbow sparkle and put it in 4-prong setting we designed that has .45 carats of bright white, clear (best grade) round diamonds on the shoulders of the setting and in a halo surrounding the gemstone. There's even 2 small diamonds underneath the gemstone - just because. Just a spectacular, unique and very rare designer ring!
Don't confuse this amazing gemstone with Cubic Zirconia, which is synthetic. "Zircon" is a natural gemstone - and we love it because it is only one of three jewelry gemstones that have a higher dispersion than a diamond (flash), and is a very hard mineral - so it makes spectacular jewelry! (the other 2 gemstones are Demantoid Garnet and Sphene). The flash in the sun is unbelievable - Red, Orange, Blue, Purple, Green - all colors that flash into your eyes when the sun hits it! Wait until you see this ring!!! It is impossible to photograph the spectacular flash (dispersion) of this gemstone!

SOME INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT ZIRCON - Zircon is regarded as the traditional birthstone for December. Zircon is the oldest known stone on earth!!! Much older than diamonds - and just as brilliant. For centuries, people thought these gemstones were actually diamonds. The fiery brilliance of zircon rivals diamonds and any other gemstone. Zircons are double refractive - if you look deeply into the photos, you will see a slight blur or doubling of the facets - it's just one of the things that make this gemstone spectacular!
Zircon is one of the heaviest gemstones, which means that it will weigh more than other stones with the same measurements. Zircon is also a hard gemstone - perfect for jewelry! There is a descriptive word in the gem trade for the 'Top Gem, World Class' gemstones - they are referred to as "Gemmy". This is definitely a 'gemmy' ring!
Natural zircon today suffers on account of the similarity of its name to "cubic zirconia", the laboratory-grown diamond imitation is NOT related to natural zircon in any way! Many people are unaware that there is a beautiful natural gemstone called Zircon. Zircon is the Birthstone of December.
This gemstone is natural and is straight from the mines of Tanzania with the double refraction and high dispersion inherent in this gemstone - you won't believe your eyes when you wear it in sunlight! Zircons are the only gemstone that have higher dispersion than diamonds (more flash)! Because they are double refractive, you will see a blurring on close up photos.
Rose Zircons are rare - and will become MUCH rarer. They are only found in one region - East Africa. There are still mines producing other Zircon colors, but Rose is one of the most desirable colors - and rare ones. This gemstone is even more rare because of its size - Rose Zircons above 7 carats are very rare - and this one is 10 carats! Miners are desperately looking for Tanzanite without luck - but what they are finding are little pockets of these pink or peach zircons the deeper they dig. They are so spectacular that we just have to design jewelry around them!
The wide variety of colors of zircon, its rarity, beauty, and its affordability make it a popular collector's stone and contributes to its growing popularity among jewelry designers and gem lovers.
