2.97 Ct. Almandine Garnet from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

A singular example of nature refined and expertly faceted, this transparent 2.97 carat emerald cut reddish pink almandine garnet, offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, embodies the quiet authority of true elegance. Meticulously cut into an emerald shape, and measuring 9.12 by 6.90 by 4.97 millimeters, this garnet reveals a medium intense color that sits between a seductive rose and a warm, refined burgundy, depending on the light. The gem displays exceptional transparency, and a clarity graded very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, allowing light to travel through its pavilion and reveal an inner glow that is both deliberate and alluring. Originating from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a source celebrated for producing gemstones of character and depth, this almandine garnet is entirely unenhanced, its natural beauty preserved and presented with an excellent polish that magnifies every facet and edge with crystalline precision.

For the discerning collector who seeks pieces that convey taste, pedigree, and presence, this garnet is the consummate acquisition. Its emerald cut lends architectural poise, offering broad, luminous planes that captivate on a solitaire ring, anchor a bespoke pendant, or form the centerpiece of a refined cocktail ring. The gem is an emblem of achievement, an object that speaks of journeys taken to acquire the finest materials, and of a cultivated eye that recognizes provenance and purity. Owning this stone is to own a piece of Ceylonese earth, transformed by skilled hands into a jewel that complements a high end collection with both restraint and drama. The Natural Gemstone Company presents it as more than a gem, it is an investment in style, a declaration of refined taste, and a rare expression of natural color and clarity, ready to be set by a master jeweler into a creation destined to be admired across generations.
