2.64 ct Brown Zircon - Cushion

At 2.64 carats, this zircon from Tanzania carries its brown color through a cushion cut, measuring 8.5 x 6.7 x 4.6 mm.

Zircon is the natural mineral often confused by name with a synthetic imitation; the real gem has fire and brilliance close to diamond. Tanzania holds some of the most interesting modern gem deposits, including several found nowhere else. It carries no treatment of any kind, so the color you see is the color that came out of the ground.

No two of these line up the same way on color, cut, and origin at once, which is what makes choosing this one feel deliberate. Hand-selected and filmed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
