Set to centre with an oval cushion-cut green zircon, weighing approximately 2.19ct, in an open back claw setting that allows light to pass freely through the stone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRenowned for their exceptional lustre and dispersion, Zircon is the oldest known gemstone on Earth. This striking example displays a vibrant, verdant green hue and is remarkably free from natural inclusions, making it an especially rare and highly desirable stone. Entirely cut by hand, its deep, carefully considered proportions animate the stone; As it catches the light, the zircon reveals a shifting spectrum of rich tones and subtle shades, bringing the gem to life.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe star-like setting of the stone is typical of the late Victorian style and is frequently seen in gypsy rings from the same time. The shoulders elegantly taper inwards to a solid 9ct gold shank which smoothly conforms to the finger. The interior of the shank is fully hallmarked but has worn away with age.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Natural Stones\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGreen Zircon weight: \u003c\/strong\u003e2.19ct\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGreen Zircon size: \u003c\/strong\u003eLength 7.4mm; Width 6.3mm; Depth 4.6mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Band\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal Composition: \u003c\/strong\u003e9ct yellow gold\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHallmarks:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indistinct hallmarks that we were unable to trace further\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Ring Overall\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFront Head Dimensions: \u003c\/strong\u003eLength 12.2mm; Width 11.2mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight of Setting: \u003c\/strong\u003e4mm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral Wear \u0026amp; Condition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent: \u003c\/strong\u003eminor wear commensurate with age.
