What is Zincite??

Zincite that most people are familiar with, was said to have been grown by accident in the smoke stack of a manufacturing facility of zinc-based paint in Poland. It is Zinc Oxide and the zinc that had become gaseous during the manufacturing process combined with oxygen and cooled, formed brightly colored, mostly orange, red and yellow crystals within the smoke stack. This brightly colored material has a high dispersion, giving flashes of different colors much like that of diamond. Though it is soft, it can still be used in jewelry, but should be worn in pendants, pins and earrings, rather than rings. We have some of this brightly colored material faceted(ovals, emerald cuts, etc), as well as in the rough. The price is approximately $30/ct depending on the size; the larger pieces are less per carat. All pieces are well cut and clean. See photos below for available stones.

Light to Medium Yellowish with a hint of Green in the deeper stones. Very Dispersive, more so than Diamond! Bright, lively with all kinds of colors leaping from internally within the gem. Unlike anything we have seen before in this material!....Faceted Zincite of decent size, fine quality faceting, clean material is difficult to find. We know of no other companies currently with Zincite which falls into this category, other than ourselves and again, we have never seen this unique color either. 
Note that the size of the gemstone as it appears in the photograph does not indicate relative size to other photos displayed.

  "I have had my zincite for several days, but it always takes me a little while to get a thorough look.  I am delighted with the gem you selected!  My wife even thought it was something special and compared it to some light yellow diamonds we have seen!  I think it has a wonderful "gemmy" clarity, and the cutting seems really well done.  What a delight to receive."

"The zincite is so unique!... Thank you for such an interesting stone to work with, I love collecting the unique."

SS - Lubbock, TX


  "I received the zincite today-- I'd been out of town for Christmas ...and couldn't have asked for a nicer surprise when I unwrapped the stone. It is all you said it was and more-- the color, the quality of the cutting, the personality of the stone, all are excellent. I look forward to doing business with you again soon."
DW - Buffalo, NY



 
"I just received the Zincite & owahee jasper. I am very happy with the jasper and -- TOTALLY blown away by the  EXCELLENT color and brillance of the Zincite.  I will be telling my lapidary and custom jeweler friends about  ALL THAT GLITTERS.  I also have a few friends who only wear custom made jewelry who I will be telling about  A.T.G.   I will  definately be interested in the Elegante cut Zincite in about 3 months."
