Natural zircon originating from Sri Lanka, with a round shape and a light yellow color. Measuring between 4.00 and 4.10 mm and weighing 0.30 carats, this semi-precious stone impresses with its impeccable clarity, without inclusions visible to the naked eye. It is untreated, thus preserving its authenticity and natural brilliance, ideal for refined jewelry. Its origin from Sri Lanka highlights its quality and rarity, making it an excellent choice for collectors and lovers of exceptional semi-precious stones.

Zircon is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates and is a source of the metal zirconium. Its chemical name is zirconium silicate, and the corresponding chemical formula is ZrSiO4. The natural color of zircon varies between colorless, golden-yellow, red, brown, blue, and green. The name derives from the Persian zargun, which means \'golden hue.\' This word is changed to \'jargoon,\' a term applied to light-colored zircons. The English word \'zircon\' is derived from Zirkon, which is the German adaptation of this word.

Yellow, orange, and red zircon is also known as \'hyacinth,\' from the flower hyacinthus, whose name is of ancient Greek origin. Transparent zircon is a well-known form of semi-precious gemstone, favored for its high specific gravity (between 4.2 and 4.86) and adamantine luster. Due to its high refractive index (1.92), it has sometimes been used as a substitute for diamond, although it does not exhibit quite the same play of color as a diamond.

Zircon is the heaviest of the gemstones, easily sinking even in very viscous liquids. Its Mohs hardness is between that of quartz and topaz, at 7.5 on the 10-point scale, although below that of the similar artificial zirconium stone. Zircons can sometimes lose their inherent color after prolonged exposure to strong sunlight, which is unusual in a gemstone. It is immune to acid attack, except for sulfuric acid and only when ground into a fine powder. The value of a zircon gemstone largely depends on its color, clarity, and size.

Before World War II, blue zircons (the most valuable color) were available from many gemstone suppliers in sizes between 15 and 25 carats; since then, even large 10-carat stones have become very rare, especially in the most desired color shades.

Attention! Do not confuse natural zircon with cubic zirconia, popularly known as \'zirconium\', which is a lab-created stone and has nothing in common with natural zircon except for the similarity in name.
