2.4ct Tasmanian parti zircon set into a solid 100% recycled sterling silver ring
size Q.75 / 8.5
-
Tasmanian zircon is valued for its brilliance and range of colors, from clear and golden hues to reddish-browns.
Found primarily in alluvial deposits in North East Tasmania, it originates from the island's ancient igneous rocks, where zircon crystals formed billions of years ago. Erosion and weathering transported these crystals into riverbeds and gravels, where they are found today.
Zircon has a hardness of 7.5 out of 10 on the Mohs scale meaning that it is both beautiful and durable enough for everyday jewellery wear.
All of our faceting is done locally here in Hobart, Tasmania.
