Fanta Orange Garnet 1.27 CT | Oval Cut Namibia
This vivid 1.27 carat oval garnet bursts with the famous Fanta orange that collectors adore. The cut is well proportioned with a bright oval outline and crisp facet junctions that send lively flashes across the crown. Under light the color leans from tangerine to glowing amber, with a gentle honeyed core that adds depth rather than washing out. The polish is excellent so reflections appear sharp and glassy, while the medium crystal shows a few tiny internal fingerprints that confirm natural origin and lend character. It faces up bright for its weight and would be a dazzling choice for a ring where fire and color are the star.
Sourced in Namibia, a country celebrated for producing the electric orange spessartine often nicknamed Fanta or Mandarin, this gem represents the manganese rich member of the garnet group with the formula Mn3Al2Si3O12. With hardness around 7 to 7.5 and a high refractive index, spessartine offers both durability and intense sparkle, and it is typically not treated. Namibian discoveries in the late twentieth century rewrote the story of orange garnet by delivering saturation rarely seen before, and fine examples have remained coveted ever since. In our Vault this stone sits in the scarce color category and we regard it as a strong value for buyers seeking an uncommon, investment worthy burst of pure orange brilliance.
Fully certified for authenticity and quality, comes with a sensory experience that you won't forget. Don't miss your chance to own this stunning piece of earth wonder.
