Fancy Cut Blue Zircon
Cambodia
Possessed of both a high refractive index and high dispersion, zircon is one of the few gems capable of rivaling diamond for brilliance and fire. As the birthstone for December, this oval-cut displays a deeply saturated blue of the most desirable nature, surpassed only by its excellent transparency and luster. In most zircons, the "fire" is often masked by a dark body color. That is not the case with this wearable and collectible stone. Zircons of more than 3 carats are exceedingly rare and this stone weighs nearly 12 carats. Weighing 11.85 carats and measuring 15.03 x 9.76 x 9.08mm
