Genuine Blue Zircon and Earth-Mined Diamond Bracelet.

Zircon is a natural mineral, often confused with cubic zirconia, but not related at all. Zircon is the base mineral of a gemstone that comes in many colors.

This 14 karat white gold bracelet features an amazing 51.09 carats of the most dazzling blue zircons in an assortment of shapes that include oval-cut, emerald-cut, pear-cut, cushion-cut, and square-cut.  These sparkling gemstones graduate in size from larger in the center to smaller towards the ends, giving a modern, "chunky-esque" look to the bracelet.  There is 1.63 carats of round, brilliant-cut, G-H color, SI1-I1 clarity diamonds that make up the halos and accent the tulip-shaped spacer hinges between the gemstones. Each blue zircon is prong-set in a braced-wire basket that extends past the pavilion and culet (or keel) for protection and for balance while wearing.  The bracelet is 7.25" long and approximately 9 mm tall.  It latches with a decorative hidden box clasp with a locking underpin for safety that bears the Oscar Friedman hallmark.  This bracelet is certified and appraised for $32,640.00 estimated retail replacement value.

  • Blue Zircons range in color from a light sky blue to a robin’s egg blue to a vivid turquoise to a deep teal.
  • During the rain season, when farming is impossible, families earn extra income by mining Blue Zircon.  90% of all Blue Zircon miners are farmers.
