Zircon is a natural gemstone that is unjustly little known in Germany. It has nothing in common with the inexpensive "zirconia", which is produced in a laboratory and is a cheap substitute for diamonds. Genuine zircons are precious gemstones that can come in many beautiful colors, whereby the blue specimens were particularly prized in the Art Deco era and are still rarities on the jewelry market today. These blue precious zircons bear the trade name "Starlit". They are created by wrapping the mostly dark brown stones in clay at temperatures of around 800 degrees Celsius and carefully firing them for several hours. With a bit of luck, this produces the unmistakable blue that is one of the most sought-after colors in the spectrum of precious zircons. This is how an initially unremarkable material is transformed into a precious gemstone. The electrifying blue of this gemstone can also be admired in these earrings. The zircons with a diameter of more than nine millimetres are set in simple white gold settings. A leaf-shaped curve with diamond roses accompanies the zircons and leads to the earwires made of high-carat gold. The zircons have slightly different colors, but this is hardly noticeable when worn in the blaze of the stones. The earrings from the 1950s are in very good condition and impress with their unusual and cool play of colors.
