This is a fantastic example of this highly coveted gemstone. Although recently discovered in 1994, it instantly became a favorite of serious gem and jewelry collectors. This is because Mali garnets are actually the combination of two rare garnet gem types, andradite garnet (demantoid) and grossular (tsavorite) that have developed together creating a totally new garnet subset. It was then named for the region it was discovered in, Mali. This example features a rich imperial hue with glittering red amber flashing that shifts to golden amber in different lighting, and every sparkle is captured in premium VVS clarity. It has a classic oval shape with tight faceting, and a superior luster that shimmers over its entire body. This piece measures 6.8mm x 6.2mm x 4mm, and is all natural with no treatments. Don't miss this amazing collectors gemstone! Sourced from Madagascar.
