We bet you thought this was something else when you saw the picture, didn't you? That's ok, we did too! Because really, who would think that this was a garnet? But it is! And one amazing garnet at that! Pull up your sock ladies and gentlemen so they don't get blown off, because presented here is a rare GREEN Malaya garnet, and you can own it! Yes you! No more spending thousands of dollars on trips to Africa, no wild animals, and no chipping away at rock looking for sparkly bits. That's already been done for you. Heck, it's even faceted, and that saves you a few hundred dollars right there! This gem exhibits a brilliant yellowish green hue with a bright tone and vivid saturation. The cut maximizes this gems refraction, giving you full bodied glittering flashing with a superior luster that adds a little extra sparkle over every facet. It measures 6.9mm x 5.6mm x 4mm and has crisp SI clarity, not that you would notice because of all the flashing. There's a lot of flashing. Sourced from the Umba Valley in Tanzania. The predominately small scale mining operations are done ensuring the extraction of these beautiful gemstones have minimal impact on the environment, so this gem is as ecco friendly as it is beautiful.

Gems come with a complimentary gem jar for display and protection, size permitting. All treatments are disclosed*, and all weights and sizes are approximate.

There may be slight color differences due to individual monitor settings and capabilities. *Except for topaz. As irradiation is the standard treatment for this gem type, they should be assumed to be as such, unless stated otherwise in the description.
