Grossular Garnet

Item Description

Garnets are a favorite among gem collectors because they occur in a wide range of colors. I've seen Garnets in literally every shade, including rarely seen blue stones from Madagascar. Grossulars are known in a fairly wide color range, from red to green with various shades in between. The discovery of these amazing Grossulars in Mali from several years ago still stands as one of the great Grossular discoveries in recent memory. This material made a big splash on the market producing larger stones with strong colors. This particular stone has a fine bright yellow-green color with virtually eye clean clarity and a standard "Checkerboard Round Brilliant" cut. A nice bright stone for any Garnet collector
