Spessartine Garnet Deep Red 0.8 CT | Oval Cut Namibia
A deep red body color fills this 0.80 carat spessartine. The oval cut is well proportioned with a bright open table and clean facet junctions that return steady brilliance. Color is even across the face and the luster is vitreous. Internal features are fine and do not distract in normal viewing, which lets the saturation read strong and clear.
Namibia’s Kaokoveld region brought spessartine to prominence in the nineteen nineties when small workings produced manganese rich material with very low impurities. While the locality is best known for vivid orange stones, some crystals form with a little more iron which shifts the hue toward red. Mining is artisanal and remote with production arriving in short periods, so well cut gems near one carat are not common. Pieces that combine clean make, bright luster and strong saturation are sought after from this origin.
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.
