Zircon Corundum Wine goblets were often carvedZircon occurs in a wide range of colors. This stone has an attractive color in person, which almost resembles Smoky Quartz, but with a golden overtone in spots. It's nearly eye clean with an "Oval Brilliant" cut. This is a lovely shade for Zircon, especially in a stone this size. You don't see these gems on the market very often, and typically the Sri Lankan Zircons are either green or yellow, so this is a rare color from this country. Don't miss this
