Cubic Zirconia, Garnet - Oval Cut Facet

These stunning garnet toned Cubic Zirconia stones are available in two classic, calibrated oval sizes: 10mm by 8mm (5mm high) and 12mm x 10mm (7mm high).

Featuring a deep red hue, these lab-created stones offer exceptional colour and clarity. The oval cut combines the sparkle of a round brilliant with an elongated shape that flatters the wearer, while the substantial depths allow for deep pavilions that maximise light return and colour saturation.

The high-intensity colour provides a economy alternative to spessartite garnet, making these stones perfect for bold statement rings, high-visibility pendants, or vibrant earring sets.

Key Properties & Care

Cubic Zirconia (CZ) is one of the most durable and "jeweller-friendly" materials available, providing the look of high-end coloured gemstones with the toughness required for everyday use.

• Mohs Hardness: With a hardness of 8.5, these stones are incredibly resistant to scratching. They will maintain their sharp facet edges and polished surface far longer than softer natural stones like Apatite or Fluorite.

• Cleaning: CZ is very easy to clean. Use lukewarm water, a mild detergent, and a soft brush. These stones are safe for ultrasonic and steam cleaners, making them easy to maintain in a professional workshop or at home.

• Maintenance:

  • UV Resistance: Unlike some natural stones that can fade in harsh light, the saturation of these CZs is permanent and will not change over time.

  • Chemical Stability: They are resistant to most common chemicals, including perfumes and hairsprays, though it is always good practice to clean the stones regularly to remove surface buildup.

  • Precision Sizing: Both sizes are standard industry calibrations, ensuring they will fit easily into pre-made commercial settings or custom-built bezels.

• Storage: Because of their high hardness, store these orange stones away from softer gems (like Turquoise or Amber) to prevent the CZ from scratching the other stones' surfaces.
