Spessartine Garnet Deep Red 1.21 CT | Oval Cut Namibia
A vivid ember captured in crystal, this flawless Spessartine Garnet shows a deep red tone with flickers of cherry and ember. Weighing 1.21 carats, the oval cut presents balanced proportions, a bright centered table, and a neat even girdle. Brisk facet junctions give crisp reflections while the mirror polish carries light across the crown in broad flashes. Light returns are even across the oval, with no windowing and minimal extinction, so the gem faces up lively and confident. Its dispersion produces glints of orange and gold that animate the bodycolor, promising striking presence in a refined ring or pendant.
Origin Namibia, a celebrated source for premium spessartine sometimes known as Mandarin garnet. The species is spessartine with formula Mn3Al2Si3O12, colored by manganese, hardness 7 to 7.5, cubic structure, singly refractive with refractive index near 1.79 to 1.81 and notably high dispersion.
