2.24 ctw Natural Unheated Brown Zircon Matched Pair – Oval Cut | AGCL Certified | Sri Lanka (Ceylon)

This 2.24 ctw matched pair of natural brown zircons is cut oval, documented on AGCL Report #M263112. Zircon has one of the highest refractive indices of any natural gemstone, giving this warm-toned pair exceptional brilliance and fire. Both stones are matched for color consistency and dimensional symmetry, ready to drop directly into earring or accent-stone settings.

Rarity Analysis

A few factors make this pair less common than typical loose zircon supply:

• Color: Medium brown zircon with even color saturation across both stones is less commonly offered as a true matched pair than as single loose stones.
• Size: At 2.24 ctw (about 1.12 ct per stone), this pair sits at a substantial weight for zircon, where finding two well-matched stones of this size is progressively harder.
• Treatment: Recorded as untreated/unheated based on the store's own assessment; the AGCL report's Comments field is blank and does not address treatment.
• Clarity: Loupe clean in both stones, an above-average clarity grade for natural zircon.
• Documentation: Species, color, total weight, shape, and dimensions verified on AGCL Report #M263112.
• Combined effect: The combination of substantial per-stone weight, loupe-clean clarity, and genuine color and dimensional matching between the two stones makes this a comparatively scarce pairing in natural zircon.

Buying Guidance

A few practical points to weigh before purchasing this specific stone:

• Understand the treatment disclosure. Untreated/unheated status is the store's own assessment; the AGCL report's Comments field is blank and does not address treatment.
• Choose a protective setting. At Mohs 7.5, brown zircon is softer than sapphire and more prone to surface wear — protective settings are recommended over exposed daily-wear rings.
• Confirm the pair suits your design. Sold and priced as a matched pair (2.24 ctw, approx. 1.12 ct per stone) for earrings or symmetrical side-stone use rather than a single center stone.
• Avoid ultrasonic and steam cleaning, and store the two stones separately to prevent surface contact between them.
• Use the Try Before You Buy option if you would like to see the stone in hand before finalizing the purchase.
