Utterly alluring. Gazing into the 5+ carat zircon in this striking Art Nouveau to Early Art Deco ring is like looking into a clear cerulean blue sea that reflects the suns rays with brilliant flashes of light. Hand fabricated in 18k white and yellow gold the ring setting is delightfully detailed with bi-color gold flowers, hand engraving all the way to the underside of the ring, and piercework, a true testament to the craftsmanship of the era. Condition is excellent having been restored by our antique expert benchsmith. The center stone just repolished and engraving touched up to like new. This treasure is ready to be worn and loved for another hundred years. Zircon is one of the birthstones for December. It is often confused with Cubic Zirconia because of the similar sounding name but Zircon is a natural mined gemstone that has been long used in fine jewelry and can be found in all the colors of the rainbow. It has been historically very popular because of its high refractive property - meaning it has a lot of sparkle and fire!
