Cubic Zirconia, Black - Rectangular Cut Facet

These sophisticated Black Cubic Zirconia stones are precision-cut into a sleek 5mm by 2mm rectangle with a 1.6mm height. This specific "baguette" style cut emphasizes clean, linear facets and a streamlined silhouette. The uniform, opaque black color combined with the sharp geometric edges offers a high-fashion, "art deco" feel that is both timeless and modern.

The slender 5mm by 2mm dimensions make these stones ideal for channel settings, delicate bar pendants, or as "bridge" accents between larger focal stones in a multi-stone design.

Key Properties & Care

Cubic Zirconia (CZ) is a high-performance, lab-created gemstone known for its remarkable durability and diamond-like structural integrity.

• Mohs Hardness: These stones boast a hardness of 8.5 on the Mohs scale. They are significantly tougher than most natural gemstones, making them virtually immune to the typical scratches and abrasions of daily wear.

• Cleaning: To maintain their brilliant surface luster, clean with lukewarm water and mild soap. A soft toothbrush is perfect for cleaning the underside of the stone where dust can collect. These stones are ultrasonic and steam cleaner safe.

• Maintenance:

  • Color Stability: The deep black pigment is permanent and will not fade, even with prolonged exposure to UV light or household chemicals.

  • Durability: Because of their 1.6mm height and rectangular shape, they are excellent for low-profile jewelry designs that sit flush against the skin.

  • Precision: As a lab-grown material, every stone is identical in dimension, which is essential for precision-fit jewelry manufacturing and repeat designs.

• Storage: Because CZ is harder than most common jewelry stones (like quartz or glass), store them in a lined box or separate pouch to ensure they don't accidentally scratch your softer gemstones.
