Spessartine Garnet Deep Red 0.9 CT | Oval Cut Namibia
This 0.90 carat spessartine shows a saturated red that holds its tone in both daylight and indoor light. The oval is symmetrical and faces bright, with a clear table and crisp meet points. Scintillation is even and the transparency is good for the variety, giving the stone a confident, lively look.
The garnet comes from northern Namibia where spessartine occurs in small lenses within ancient metamorphic rocks. Output has always been modest and irregular because of remoteness and the limited size of the pockets. Chemistry dominated by manganese with a touch of iron produces warm red through orange hues that are distinctive to the district. Attractive stones close to one carat with pleasing clarity and careful cutting remain scarce, which keeps fine Namibian spessartine in demand with collectors.
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.
