Those of you who know us, will know we love a zircon. A naturally occurring stone as old as time itself (there are zircons in Australia known to be 4 billion years old literally from the start of earth itself). They come in a fabulous array of colours, they are not well known stone (which we think is a travesty) - and this does come from the fact that it is often overlooked because people confuse it for cubic zirconia (which is a cheap manmade stone with nothing in common except for the end of the word). 

This gorgeous green zircon is a fabulous lime green colour and the thin veiled cloudy inclusions in this stone give is a really opalescent quality - you don't see through all the facets to the base of the ring. Set in a six claw white gold setting wit white spinel side stones this is a classic early 1970s piece. 

Would stack like a dream. 

Particulars: 

Size S or 9 (sizeable)

Weight 2.26g

Width 7.5 x 6.7mm x 8.1mm proud on a flat shank of 2 x 0.75mm 

Stone - round 6mm green zircon and 2 x 2.8mm white spinels 

Hallmarks  "9CT"

Condition - the natural stone is included - like slightly cloudy - this gives it a bit of an opalescent quality in the shade, and keeps the sparkle in the sunshine to the top layers, not the deep facets. Moderate surface wear to the ring and settings - that you would expect with 50+ years of life 

Care - As a general rule - jewellery should not be worn for strenuous tasks that may put pressure, chemicals and weight on them (think cleaning, gym, swimming/spa, carrying things). Jewellery should be inspected every six months by a jeweller to check for wear.

Please be aware that this item is pre-loved and therefore is NOT new. Please see the pictures and description to ensure you are happy with it before you buy.

Also note - none of the other items or props in the photo come with the item and all measurements are approximate.

All items are available on lay-by - please get in touch to discuss options.

FAQ

Sizing

What do we mean when we say a ring is "sizeable"? Well, most standard rings can be made bigger or smaller by up to three letter sizes. If we say the item is "moderately sizeable", this usually means about 1 size, and if we say it is "not sizeable" or that "sizing is not recommended" it will be due to the construction - it could be age related, pattern related, have enamel etc.

We can happily help with sizing of rings, so please do get it touch if we can give you a quote.
