AAA Zircon 4-Piece Jewellery Set – Retro Olive Green

Four-Piece Zircon Set in Retro Olive Green

A four-piece set — necklace, ring, bracelet and earrings — in copper inlaid with AAA zircon, in olive green on a snake bone chain. Ring sizes 6 to 10.

Ring Sizing: "Yards" Means Size

The size options read "6 Yards" through "10 Yards". That is a translation slip in the supplier's data — the Chinese word for a ring size has come through as "yards". Read them as US ring sizes 6 to 10, which convert to roughly UK L½, N½, P½, R½ and T½. If you are between sizes, or buying as a gift, size up.

What AAA Means

Zircon and cubic zirconia are graded on clarity and cut, from A up to AAAAA. AAA is the grade where stones are visibly clear and well cut without the price of the top tiers — the level most costume jewellery worth buying sits at. It is not a gemstone certification, but it is not nothing either.

Care

Copper under plating darkens with wear, so this is occasion jewellery. Keep it dry, put it on last, and store the four pieces separately. Wipe the stones with a dry cloth; the film left by hand cream and cosmetics is what dulls zircon, not the stone wearing down.

FAQ

Is olive green difficult to wear?
Less than it sounds. It sits naturally with cream, camel, brown and navy, and it is one of the few stone colours that flatters warm skin tones under evening light.
