Christine,

    Your earrings are already priceless once you said that they were from
    your mother. Another kind of value...do you understand me? 

    I don't want to disappoint you=A0 but I=A0can guarantee that you have =
a
    pair of Cubic Zircons, no doubt. Also don't be sad, Zircon is a
    remarkable mineral, if only for its almost ubiquitous presence in the
    crust of Earth. It is found in magmatic rocks (as primary
    crystallization products), in metamorphic rocks (as recrystallized
    grains) and in sedimentary rocks (as detrital grains). 

    Unfortunately Avon isn't famous due to precious stones in their
    jewelry.
