Item Description
Next to the vibrant orange Spessartines from the Ramona area of San Diego County, California, the Virginian Spessartines are some of the most recognized orange Spessartines from the United States. Rarely does one see facetted gems of this material. This stone has a very nice orange hue (from a high Manganese content) as is often seen in crystals from this area. The stone is very very slightly included with a "Trillion" cut. Do not let this stone get away, as they are becoming impossible for me to obtain in fine quality stones.
