Rhodolite (great size and color)

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 a deep fiery red-pink color, and is nearly eye clean. The stone has a beautiful "Quantum Pear" cut, and under strong lighting, the stone really shines. The fact that this stone is over 7 carats (nearly 8!!) makes all the difference, because they are rarely this large on the open market. It is a wonderful, larger size stone from what is proving to be one of the premier localities in the world for the material. The high end retail value on this stone is $991.25.
