Grossular Garnet

Item Description

Garnets are quite a diverse group of gems, as they occur in a wide range of colors from hundreds of localities around the world. You can find Garnets in literally every shade ranging from red to green, including rarely seen blue stones from Madagascar. Grossular Garnets are known in a fairly wide color range. There was a discovery of these amazing Grossulars in Mali several years ago, and it 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 very slight inclusions and a standard "Checkerboard Round Brilliant" cut. A nice bright stone for any Garnet collector
