Rhodolite (cut by Allyce Kosnar)

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. The Rhodolites from Tanzania are amazingly attractive gems, and are fast becoming very popular among gem collectors, as this material is not very common. This gem has an electric deep red color. This stone was cut by Allyce Kosnar on May 2, 2010. The stone has VVS clarity and the cut on the stone is a "Modified Square" cut. The fact that this stone is over 3 carats makes it significant because they are not often this large on the open market. It is a great stone from what is proving to be one of the premier localities in the world for the material. Priced at $249.75 retail.
