  • Ultra Light
    Zirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    Silicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
  • Thin
    Zircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
  • Thin Italic
    As short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
  • Light
    The name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
  • Light Italic
    As short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
  • Book
    In crystal growth, combinations of light intensity, light color, electric current, sound, the direction of these, plus the shape and size (frequency pattern) of the container or room, will all affect the final characteristics and energy potentials of a desired stone.
  • Book Italic
    Connected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
  • Regular
    Connected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
  • Regular Italic
    Silicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
  • Medium
    The name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
  • Medium Italic
    Radioactive dating shows that the zircon crystals were formed more than 4 billion years ago.
  • Bold
    Zirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
  • Bold Italic
    Yellow, orange and red zircon is also known as “hyacinth”, from the flower hyacinthus, whose name is of Ancient Greek origin.
  • Black
    Some rocks, such as limestone or quartzite, are composed primarily of one mineral—calcite or aragonite in the case of limestone, and quartz in the latter case.
  • Black Italic
    The name derives from the Persian zargun meaning gold-hued; this word is corrupted into “jargoon”, a term applied to light-colored zircons.
