Item Description

Rhodolite Garnets are some of the most vivid and beautiful gems in the Garnet family. These stones are beloved for their great color and large size stones. Garnets are generally very difficult to find in stones over 4 or 5 carats because the material simply does not often form large, gemmy sections that produce large stones, so to find a gem over 13 carats like this is a big deal. This gem is a lovely stone with a dark reddish-pink color and an attractive "Round" cut. The stone is slightly included, but I think the inclusions can be forgiven considering the size. A great opportunity for a Garnet to collector to add a very good sized Rhodolite gem to their collection.
