C&S Blue Zirkon Genuine

A gem of great beauty and rarity, sparkling Blue Zircon might be mistaken for the far more expensive blue diamond. Indeed, colorless forms of Zircon were long favored by consumers because this breathtaking gem, with its superb brilliance and dispersion, looks more like diamond than any other stone. Frequently used to celebrate December birthdays and the 4th wedding anniversary, the aqua-blue brightness of Zircon, often tinged with shimmering teal, gives energy and renewal to those who discover this often overlooked gem. Our selection of calibrated Blue Zircon is just the beginning. Larger, one-of-a-kind Blue Zircon are sometimes available as part of the Black Box Gemstone® collection.
