I

am Zircon and since Medieval times, I have brought wisdom, honor and wealth to those who possess me. I am especially prized for protecting travelers from harm, and even today, the Hindus believe I can stimulate spiritual growth.

Zircon is mined in Sri Lanka, Thailand and Cambodia. The gemstone's fire and brilliance can rival that of any gemstone, and its affordability, coupled with its vibrant colors of greens, blues and pleasing earth tones, contribute to its growing popularity today.

Zircon is the December birthstone and is associated with the astrological signs of Taurus and Scorpio.
