Clear Zircon Through History
Before the advent of diamond cutting techniques, Clear Zircon was one of the most prized gemstones in the world, valued for its exceptional brilliance and fire. It has been found in ancient Egyptian tombs and was widely used in Victorian jewellery. Its name is thought to derive from the Persian zargun (gold-coloured) or the Arabic zarkun (vermillion), reflecting the wide colour range of the zircon family.
