Earth-mined blue zircon weighing 1.99ct ETW in a pear cut from Cambodia, featuring slightly included clarity and gentle heat treatment.
This zircon displays beautiful blue coloration enhanced through gentle heat treatment, a well-established practice used to develop desirable blue tones in natural zircon. Its pear-shaped faceting complements the gemstone's high refractive index, producing lively reflections and an attractive display of brilliance.
Zircon is a naturally occurring gemstone species valued for its exceptional optical properties, including high brilliance, strong dispersion, and distinctive double refraction. Unlike synthetic cubic zirconia, natural zircon is a genuine mineral with a geological history extending billions of years. Blue zircon is particularly popular for its vivid appearance and attractive light performance.
Cambodia is one of the world's best-known sources of blue zircon, particularly the deposits associated with the Ratanakiri region. Cambodian zircon has earned recognition in the gemstone trade for producing attractive blue stones following appropriate heat treatment, making the country an important source of this desirable gemstone variety.
At 1.99 carats with dimensions of 9.7 x 6.3 x 3.3 mm, this zircon offers an elegant elongated profile suitable for a custom pendant or a carefully protected occasional-wear ring. Its distinctive pear shape lends itself beautifully to contemporary settings, classic teardrop designs, and jewelry that emphasizes the gemstone's blue coloration.
With a hardness of approximately 6 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, zircon should be protected from impacts and abrasion, particularly around facet edges. The combination of Cambodian origin, attractive blue color, and graceful pear-cut proportions gives this individual zircon a refined presentation.
A lovely earth-mined blue zircon offering lively brilliance, elegant proportions, and the distinctive beauty of a classic Cambodian gemstone.
