A new gemstone from the mines of Thailand, then still called "Siam", caused a sensation in the 1920s: the so-called "starlite" zircon. It was named by the famous American gemologist George Frederick Kunz, whom the brilliance of the stone reminded of sparkling starlight. The special thing about the stone was that it only acquired this unusual colour and brilliance through heating, as it has a brown-red color in its raw state. In the 1920s, when people were enthusiastic about technology and progress, they pounced on this new, electric blue jewel. When we discovered this ring without its original center stone, we therefore decided to set it with such a gemstone. The large precious zircon sparkles in bright blue. Its round cut perfectly accentuates the unusual brilliance of the zircon. It is framed by a delicate, lace-like platinum setting, held on a fine ring band. Would you like to show the ring the 20s of a new century?
