Zafiro icons is minimalist icons created with the flat-desing technique, utilizing washed out colors and always accompanied by white.This icon set looks good and awesome in your system.

Since it’s new set of icon and the developer is requesting us to report for any missing application related icons and not for other categories.

If any one fork this icon pack then the developer would feel that his work got recognized.This icons are compatible with most of the Linux desktop environments such as Gnome, Unity, Cinnamon, Mate, Lxde, Xfce and others.
