Amazing features of cubic zirconia stones
Fire and Brilliance– CZ has slightly less brilliance (sparkle) than diamond while having more fire (flashes of rainbow colors). The overall effect is so similar to diamond that trained gemologists often require special equipment to tell them apart.
Weight– CZ is about 75% heavier than diamond. As such, a CZ’s size is referred to in carats only as in comparison to diamonds. CZs are more accurately measured in millimeters, referring to the diameter. (A 6.5 mm cubic zirconia is equal in size to a one-carat diamond and actually weighs about 1.75 carats.)
Hardness– There are very few substances on earth harder than CZ. With a hardness rating of 8.5, CZ comes closer to matching the diamond’s perfect 10.
Cut– The finest CZ is cut to exacting tolerances, according to the proportions demanded in fine diamond cutting. Finely cut CZs will have a polished girdle and more fire.
Clarity– Because CZ is grown in a laboratory in a controlled environment, any crystals that fall short of perfect clarity are simply not used. The finest CZ gems are perfect in clarity.
Cubic zirconia stones are less expensive than your everyday diamonds; however, the brilliance and crystal clarity of it makes it a great alternative to diamonds that cost fortunes to own. In order to simulate diamonds, most cubic zirconia stones are found in bright white. However, they can be manufactured in various colors such as blue, pink, green, yellow, and more.
Since it is created artificially, cubic zirconia doesn’t have any inclusions. So, if you wish to gift something absolutely flawless, it is a perfect choice.
